Kids

Overfrown

“This is my kindergarten school picture. I was four, and apparently hated taking pictures. The arm you see on the left is my mother’s, to ensure I would stay put while they took the picture.”

In Your Face

“This is our first family portrait. A friend thought it was staged but not at all. After about 10 minutes of taking pictures it was getting pretty hard to wrangle my son. I actually love this photo the most because it really captures the family dynamic well.”

You Get What You Pay For

“So about 5 Years ago I ran an ad on Facebook asking for an inexpensive photographer to come to my house. I had just had a new baby and wanted some photos of the children. He came and it was a mess from the start. Here’s just a few of the many awkward photos I got back from this man. You get what you pay for.”

Me, Myself, And Eye

Bingo Was Her Name-O

“I’m the smiling kid in the front and my aunt, my grandparents and a cousin are the ones looking at me. We used to play Bingo during the Christmas holidays at my uncle’s home and they were not happy with something I did but I don’t remember why. It must have been something really, really bad judging from their faces.”

Double Rainbow

“My daughter, revelling in the sight of a double rainbow, while her older brother is a complete grump because she wouldn’t share a biscuit. Sums them up perfectly.”
