Kids
Sesame Ave
“I think this was around ’92 or ’93. My mom worked at a nursing home and these Sesame Street characters were there for the day (???). Can you tell me how to get, how to get to…never mind.”

Basket Case
“My parents had brought me to a portrait studio, and apparently I didn’t want my picture taken. It was taken anyway, just with a surreal approach.”

More Than Meets The Eye
“Being a mom isn’t easy so while you try to get one kid to sleep you’re also playing with another.”

Crappy Birthday
“It was a custom that the cousins would give out the birthday spankings, but apparently for my birthday that year, it got a little rough. I think I look terrified. It’s like a scene out of “Lord of the Flies.” Notice the John Travolta poster in the background, and the fact that my brother is laughing maniacally and holding a leather belt.”

“For my school photo I was sporting every hairstyle known to man all in one haircut.”

Dee Dee And Me
“My girlfriend has always has a fear of clowns, I found this in some photos her mum gave her. Dee Dee the clown was his name and now we know where the fear started! 1993.”

Tape
“My father took this picture of my brothers and me. He’s from Slovakia and English is his second language. Maybe he couldn’t read the sign.”

Background Energy
“1991 was a wild time to be alive. I may not have had any control over how my mother styled those bangs but I did have control over that sweet, sweet portrait background choice. Also, I’m not sure what’s going on with my teeth.”
