School Photos
Punky Brewster
“This is my daughter in her preschool class. My husband at the time was a stay at home dad with a punk rock history. He thought it was awesome, she did too, for about 5 minutes. I’m glad we captured it. She’s 14 now and gives it the sideways glance as it’s hanging up in our hallway.”

Smilecraft
“My aunt told my cousin if he would smile for his pictures, he could get Minecraft. This was the most he could muster.”

The Repair Job
“My aunt got her hair colored shortly before her high school graduation. It turned orange by accident. This was the repair job. Rest assured, you could spot her in the crowd of graduates from a mile away.”

Put On A Happy Face
“My daughter’s first school photo ever. Thankfully she’s gotten the hang of smiling (and school!) down.”

The Reba McEntire
“Taken probably in 1996. To this day, I’m still questioning how my mom and hairdresser thought this ‘do was a good look for picture day at school. And combine it with pre-braces teeth…”

Moustache Rides
“My older step-sisters had given me this shirt that I never understood at the time but because they gave it to me, I loved it. I realized many years later what the shirt meant and then started remembering the looks I would get from teachers & adults when I wore the shirt. Why they allowed me to wear it as my Grade 7 class picture, I’ll never know but I’ve got a great story as the result of it.”

Back To School
“My sister and me on the first day of school. Apparently I went to school with Willy Wonka and my sister with Zach Morris at Bayside!”

When Mom Forgets It’s Picture Day
Maybe the graphic tee would have been a better choice.

Ratty
“This is my absolutely favorite childhood picture of my husband. He was 12 years old. It was taken a day after Easter with his pet rat, that he called RATTY. His birthday was just a few weeks before Easter and my mother-in-law was going to take my husband to JC Penny for his traditional annual birthday picture. He wanted to have his picture taken with RATTY 🙂 And he did! It was shortly after that JC Penney Portrait Studio adopted a policy of no animals in its studios.”
