Family Portrait
Nana In The Middle
“Here’s our extra 90s family pic. I remember being very upset my shoes were dirty but my Mom said it’s not about my shoes, it’s about the denim. And that’s good ole nana in the middle.”

Snapshot
“This is my family a few months before I was born. Deciding it would be cute to get a pre-me family portrait, they dragged my infant brother to a photo studio. Two hours and much bawling later, this was the best picture they got.”

Herding The Grandkids
“Photo of all the grandchildren. I always thought it was funny how much was going in this photo, plus the two awkward arms in the bottom of the photo holding babies in place!”

Red Stripe
“This is my family circa 1994. We heard ‘Where’s Waldo?’ so many times. All us kids were so embarrassed to wear these, but my dad made us wear them whenever we were in public!”

Baby Bird
“I wanted to give my husband a nice picture of us for his work office but I ordered this particular picture without noticing my sweet baby boy’s hand gesture. My husband had it on his desk for years.”

Ratt’s Nest
“My mom had a free session at Olan Mills and she said if I went with her, I could wear whatever I wanted and I could ‘Ratt’ my hair.”

Bear Lake
“A very short-lived photo studio opened at the mall near our house and my brother and I begged for months to get our family photo taken there. Finally, our parents relented and our family spent a glorious evening trying a variety of poses and costumes before selecting this gem. The real highlight came with people’s reactions to the photo after we had it framed and placed over the fireplace. Because this was before the advent of Photoshop, a lot of people ACTUALLY BELIEVED THAT THIS HAD HAPPENED…even one of my brother’s girlfriends.”

The Viking Compromise
