Family Portrait

In Bloom

“A picture of my family and I (I’m the little girl with brown hair). My mom thought it would be a good idea to take the family to get professional photos. We were rocking the mullets, huge glasses, and floral prints.”

Tube Tops

“This is a portrait of me and my mom taken at the local Woolworth’s in the late 70’s. My mom thought it would be cute to take photos in our tube tops. I posted this pic on FB as it’s always been one of my favorites; I thought it was so sweet. Two weeks later, a friend saw it on FB and suggested that it could be a contender for your site. I HAD NEVER THOUGHT OF THE PHOTO IN THAT LIGHT, but now that I see what others see, I can’t stop laughing.”

Leggings

“My parents hired a photographer to come to the house and take a family picture and for the angle seems to accentuate our shins. We were all crammed on the couch that us kids were not allowed to sit on in the room we were not allowed in.”

C’mon, Get Happy

“In the early 2000s I went to a photographer in Croatia. I was crying the whole time, so the photographer decided to give me this thing which made me even more sad.”

Laser Denim Mullets

“I don’t think anyone is prepared for the 90s masterpiece of my mom, her boyfriend, me and my brothers. Those mullets. The lasers. And so much denim.”

Parking Lot Communion

“My little sister’s first Holy Communion. She was over getting her picture taken and wanted to get out of that dress. We were like, “Just one more in the parking lot!”
