Cousin Chaos

“This is me and all of my cousins getting a family portrait done at a Sears somewhere in Boston, MA. I’m the one crying. Don’t know why. But my dad says we gave up on the photo after about 45 minutes.”

The Storm Tracker

“My sister was visiting for Christmas and we got snow for the first time in ages. Consequently, a gigantic branch fell on my car and my sister, being the unofficial family photographer, just had to document this important moment.”

Woods & Petals

“This is me and my sister back in 2000. I’m not sure why we decided that this was the direction we wanted to go in for my mom’s Christmas gift that year. My sister was a music major at the time and I was in the middle school band but that still doesn’t fully explain the theme with the flower petals on the floor. This photo still hangs on my mom’s living room wall and no one other than myself thinks it’s weird.”

A Family Tableau

“Turned the corner to go into the living room, expecting nothing out of the ordinary, and was immediately taken aback to find this scene going on quietly.”
