Behind The Awkwardness
It’s My Birthday
“We were celebrating my daughter’s first birthday and this picture was snapped of my daughter, her father and her nana. She did NOT want to take any pictures and did NOT want to be held.”

Foxy Lady
“My priest owns an African Fennic Fox and decided to bring her to my wedding. Well, this normally tame awesome little creature, which I had met & held the day before, decided to go buck-wild & climb up my neck. Thankfully (I think), my wedding photographer caught it on camera. I was mostly scared it would scratch my gown but it just scratched up my chest…which prompted my awesome priest to say ‘Oh sorry, she scratched your boobs up.’ That’s my husband on the right laughing nervously & not saving me btw :)”

Taking The Plunge
“My 11 month old was fascinated by the household toilet plunger. Obviously, it was off limits. But after a week of constantly prying it from his little grasp, I bought him a brand new one for his very own. And then… this is what he did with it.”

Seeing Red
“This is a picture of my mom & I at a Civil War reenactment. To this day I cannot understand why we would want to take a picture with a man who is wearing an apron covered in fake blood. I was just as freaked out then as I am now. Oh, and loving the outfit, Mom!”

Sunday Best
“This picture is of me and my two siblings after church on Easter Sunday…when we got home, we decided to wake Dad up and have him take family pictures with us. This is how it ended.”

When The Sh#* Hits The Fan
“One day we went to change our two week old child. At that time the new doting daddy (me) took pictures of almost everything. Just as his nappy came off the poor little mite projectile pooped straight into the whirling blades of a fan heater. It made quite a mess.”

Santa’s Workshop
“The setting of this Christmas photo explains a lot about my childhood.”

Wigging Out
“This is my sister’s school photo in 1971. My Mom insisted that she wear and wig and as you can imagine, she wasn’t very happy about it. It was of course great to see your older sister get some pay back for all the torture she had caused me during that period.”
