Family Portrait
Unbreakable
“My two sisters had leg injuries and my dad had two partially fractured vertebra because he fell down the shed in our garden. (Everybody is doing good though and they will be fine soon!) My dad had the great idea to take an early Christmas photo to send our friends and relatives to show how happy we are. My mom and I added our own dressings to fit into the picture.”

Nightmare Before Christmas
“This was our family Christmas card. Trust me there are many more gems like this one. As we finished Thanksgiving dinner, we all dreaded the coming family photo, to embarrass us for many more generations. The things that some mothers do to their children border on child abuse.”

Welcome To The Gun Show
“This pic was taken of myself, my two little brothers, and our father in the early 90’s. Apparently, we felt the need to show off our lack of muscles!”

Grabbing My Attention
“I’m a photographer at a Sears Portrait Studio and I conned my mother and her new husband to come get some photos made with me. I was having difficulty smiling without making the squinty-eye face. I guess my mom was getting tired of waiting on me to finally get my act together, so she reached up and grabbed my boob to make me laugh. This was the result. I couldn’t make that face again if I tried. Not surprisingly, this is my mother’s biggest and most natural smile in the whole 2 hour session! Mom’s poor new husband doesn’t even know what he got himself into…”
Going Rogue
“We tried taking a nice family picture now that my daughter is one. She looks like she’s going to slit someone’s throat.”

An Uplifting Moment
“This is a photo of my family and me from a few years back. I’m the oldest and in the middle, youngest on the left, middle child on the right. We didn’t plan this, but it turned out to be pretty awkward.”

Two Sets Of Twins
“As the father of two sets of twins, I think this is the first in a long line of Awkward Family Photos.”

Fumble
“This is a photo of my daughter and my two nephews. My oldest nephew was not happy about being separated from his mom to take the picture. We gave him a football to keep him calm, but apparently he wasn’t having it.”

Dog Lover
“This was a family photo we took this past Christmas. My brother is the only member of our family who isn’t in the relationship, but not wanting to be the odd man out he called upon his dog, Dutch, to fill in.”
