School Photos
Spawn
“My son wanted to wear his Spawn Halloween costume for picture day at school. Of course, we said no. Stubborn child that he was, he hid the costume in his back pack and wore it anyway! We had no idea until the pictures arrived, I was so angry! I intended to send them back and do retakes but my mother in law begged me to buy them. She said I would love them someday, and she was so right!”

Upside Down
“We had taken our son to Sears for a photo session. We received the proofs and ordered prints, not realizing that his middle finger was proudly displayed in the photo. It wasn’t until years later we noticed it.”

Urban Cowboy
“This was one of my most awkward years, early 80’s when Urban Cowboy was blowing up at the box office. My school decided that spring photos would be exactly that. Well I am not sure if that was the greatest of ideas, but its given my family, facebook and now hopefully AFP plenty more laughs!!!”
