Nine To Five
“This is me at the age of 10. For some bizarre reason I wanted to be a ‘business woman’ for Halloween complete with lens-less frames and an attache case to collect candy in. I dunno, maybe I thought it was scary. My brother was less creative and wanted to be a ghost. The black marker rimmed mouth hole bled all over his actual mouth, which I thought was quite amusing.”

Leave The Stain, Cover My Name
“Back in 4th grade, I was too young to know how to do laundry. Here we are at a family outing taking. Mother had dressed me in my nice stained shirt with my name on it. But for some reason, we don’t want anyone to know who I am, so let’s cover up my name and leave the stain. Gonna have to check all my old pics now and see how many my clothes are stained. No wonder I never got any dates.”

A Frown For The Yearbook
“So my son hasn’t ever really been a fan of photos, but when it comes to school pictures in particular, he hates them. In all honesty, this an improvement from last year. By grade 8 maybe we’ll manage a smile.”

Where Babies Come From
“When my Mom went into labor she didn’t make it in time to the hospital and she gave birth in the parking lot of the emergency room. Dad had to leave my mom and run inside to notify the staff. After everything happened the hospital gave my Dad a shirt. Well fast forward a couple months later he thought it would be a good idea to wear the shirt to church on the day I was baptized. My Mom (standing next to him) was trying to not look disappointed. The shirt reads, ‘I know where babies come from.’ Even my Godmother and Godfather look disappointed. My Dad is the only one smiling.”

Taking The Lunge
“The photographer taking our family pictures asked my four year old son to give her some cool poses. I believe he was going for cool but casual and obviously he nailed it.”

Photoshop In The 60’s
“My grandparents decided to have a family photo done many years ago when my aunt was out of town. So, 5 of the 6 children were present for the photo. They decided to later add a photo (a bad photo) of my aunt to perfect the picture and complete the family photo. Honestly, you can barely tell it was even altered.”

Stick Together
“We were having our fall family photos taken. No one (including the photographer) saw my son with the stick! What a surprise when I opened our photos and this was the first one I saw!”
