Photos
Bummer
“My Mom let me pick out my clothes for picture day. I even took a pair of her earrings to tie together my all red outfit. I wasn’t thinking when I picked my shirt. The camera cut off at the exact wrong point.”

Picture Imperfect
“I wanted so badly to get the perfect family photo as a gift for the grandparents. We did get a beautiful photo but this one ended up being my favorite. 15 years later, my mom still has it hanging on her fridge.”

Mom Wanted Twins
“This is a photo of my boyfriend when he was two years old. Why does he match that doll? Why is there a lit candle in the middle of the train? Did the photographer provide the doll and matching outfits? We will never know.”

Gals And Dolls
“My mom thought it would be a great idea to dress me, her, and my American Girl doll Samantha in matching nautical themed outfits. Hard to say why we are all staring wistfully in different directions. My mom has not one, but two very large prints of this in their home (one upstairs and one downstairs) in Orange County, CA.”

Gone Fishin’
“I’m not sure what my mom was thinking with this photo of my brother and me (I’m on the left). I know the show Hee Haw was a thing, but the shirtless, overall-wearin’, fishing pole-totin’ theme is beyond wacky imagination.”

“My aunt and her kids…not sure what to say about this horrible concept other than ‘headache much?'”
