Family Portrait
The Late Addition
“My dear friend’s mother came up with a very creative solution when, as a little girl, my friend cried upon seeing this photo when she saw she wasn’t in it.”

Sneer For The Camera
“I just love the contrast between my mother’s sweet, Madonna-like appearance and my father’s menacing look. My sister is the wide-eyed innocent in this photograph, while I am the disconsolate girl in the gingham dress.”

Picture Imperfect
“I wanted so badly to get the perfect family photo as a gift for the grandparents. We did get a beautiful photo but this one ended up being my favorite. 15 years later, my mom still has it hanging on her fridge.”

Mom Wanted Twins
“This is a photo of my boyfriend when he was two years old. Why does he match that doll? Why is there a lit candle in the middle of the train? Did the photographer provide the doll and matching outfits? We will never know.”

Gals And Dolls
“My mom thought it would be a great idea to dress me, her, and my American Girl doll Samantha in matching nautical themed outfits. Hard to say why we are all staring wistfully in different directions. My mom has not one, but two very large prints of this in their home (one upstairs and one downstairs) in Orange County, CA.”

Head Space
“My aunt and her kids…not sure what to say about this horrible concept other than ‘headache much?'”

Baby Goth
“I’m the baby in the photo and my parents were very goth-rock in the 80s and dressed us all up to take professional photos at Walmart.”

Over It All
“My sister and I with our daughters at the height of the denim overall shorts craze. We were so proud of our matching outfits.”

Group Effort
“We were having a rough time with the photographer. He finally told us to just look at something, so we all looked at what we wanted.”
