Halloween
Weenie Roast
“Every year on holiday my mum would make me dress up in a fancy dress competition. Here I am in the early 90’s, inside two sleeping bags… dressed as a ‘Hot Dog.’ As you can see I’m a good foot or so higher than the other contestants, making me at least 12 or 13… old enough to feel the utter embarrassment of being dressed as a massive sausage in a bun! It was also swelteringly hot inside.”

Under Woman
“Apparently wearing underoos for a Halloween costume back in 1984 (while posing in the most 1980s room ever) was completely acceptable for a 5 year old girl, according to my mom.”

Head Start
“1993, London and I was 2 years old. My parents were friends with a make-up artist and prop maker and thought this would be a great picture.”

Year Of The Mittens

Dirty Bird
“That was 3 year old me at a school Halloween party in the gym. And as far as I know, that was supposed to be Big Bird. And I’m still traumatized.”

Little Red Riding Nope
“Our youngest daughter, (Little Red Riding Hood), was none-too-pleased about taking a Halloween portrait. Hence the frown of all frowns.”
