Rando In The Henhouse
“It was a lovely day in my parents garden. I love their hens, so I wanted a picture of one of them together with my best friend. Little did I know some guy was coming up behind us!”

The Drunk Photographer
“This is a photo of my parents and siblings, taken on Mom and Dad’s 50th wedding anniversary. We had a big party for them and had arranged several photo shoots for a family picture. The photographer had arrived somewhat inebriated at our first location, which was an outdoor site, beautifully located in front of a lake. He had really gotten on Mom’s nerves because he was so obviously tipsy and kept egging her on to smile (which wasn’t one of her best assets). The last stop was his studio. Mom was on her last nerve and this is what we got.”

Schoolhouse Rock
“This is my kindergarten school photo. Everyone else in class had some sort of prop, like a baseball bat, basketball, their favorite doll, etc. I felt extremely left out, so I decided to hold my chunk of cement that I (for some weird reason) was carrying around in my backpack. I wish I could have seen my parents face when I came home with my pictures.”

1998: A Clown Odyssey
“I am in this photo on the right-hand side, dressed as the ‘sad’ clown. My dad (in the middle) used to do clown shows for kids’ birthday parties so he had this ‘wonderful’ idea to dress us all as clowns and take a family photo. The doll on my step-mom’s lap is to represent my unborn brother who was still ‘in the oven’ at the time.
The part I remember most about this was walking around all day dressed as a clown. We went to several different photo places before finally getting the pics done, if I remember correctly, but I don’t recall why. I just remember going to different places that day and everyone was staring at us!”

Hallelujah
“Photo of my cousins wedding. At first it looks like a normal wedding photo but please draw your attention to the priest in the background. This was completely unexpected.”

Just For Kicks
“This photo is of me and my family at my sister’s baby shower. We were trying to all get our hand on her belly to feel the baby kick, but there wasn’t enough space for all our hands.”

One Haircut Fits All
“That’s me on the right. I’m glad I got to wear the “Little Mermaid” dress because it was the only way people could tell I was a girl. I was in kindergarten, my brother in the middle was in second grade, and my brother on the left was in fourth grade. Somehow we all wound up with identical hair cuts. Luckily, Mom pierced my ears shortly after this photo was taken. I had endured people calling me my brother’s name one too many times.”

What Happens At The Bar Mitzvah
“This is a picture of me and my brother at his bar mitzvah. What the hell was the photographer thinking? And why did anyone in our family not burn this?”
