Easter
The Bunny Lady
“I don’t remember taking this picture. I have no idea who this woman is, why she’s dressed like the Easter Bunny, or what she’s thinking to provoke that facial expression. I can only guess that this was some time during my sixth grade year and that it was so embarrassing, I blocked it from mind.”

Lemonade Stand
“Some members of the family were late for another Easter dinner they needed to attend, my father-in-law was grumping about standing for too long, my brother-in-law ran to grab the ladder so I could set the camera on it as a kids were escaping left and right. After twenty minutes of gathering the crew for a quick portrait before we dispersed, I finally figured out how to set the self-timer, framed the photo and clicked the button. I ran to my position and focused on being ready for the shot- I didn’t want to do this undignified dance too many times…Read More
Bunnybackers
“My mom worked for the local University athletic department and thought it would be a good idea to hire a few football players to dress up as Easter bunnies. My friend and I cried the moment we saw them. Our parents finally coaxed us over to the swings to get a quick photo before they sent them away. It was definitely an Easter fail.”

The Stain
“My sister and me in our handmade matching Easter dresses. No one remembers how the “stain” got on the front of my dress… I think we all just blocked it out.”

Patch Adams
“This is a picture of my son with our first experience with my new sister-in-laws family. Apparently, her uncle has dressed as the Easter bunny for 20+ years.. that costume is as old as he has been doing this and yes, he has been wearing glasses with an eye patch for over several years… that was not part of his costume!”

Happy Together
“The three youngest in the picture are me (far left, arms crossed tough guy pose) and my brothers. Mike (front and center) is the youngest, he was going through a real Pee Wee Herman phase at the time and Brian(far right, arms crossed, terrifying smile) is the oldest. The guy with the Bon Jovi hair, shoulder pads and tie is my cousin Pat. The 80’s Jersey stereotype is his younger sister Kelly. Judging by our faces, none of us (with the exception of Brian) wanted to be there.”

The End Of The Innocence
“During school picture time at my kids’ daycare, they always do the younger kids on the first day and the older kids on the second day. What they didn’t tell me is that they would be doing sibling photos together on the first day. As such, the baby was dressed for her photo, and my son was dressed in a car show t-shirt, sweatpants, and Spider-Man shoes. Add to this the psychotic faux bunnies, crazy backdrop, and the photographer assistant’s head poking in from the right-hand side, and you have the perfect storm of awkwardness.”
