The Fight Before Christmas
“Our annual family pictures used to be very stressful events, but 1998 took the cake. In this picture, I had just taken a Santa doll from my sister. She retaliated by slapping me and taking the doll back. I was clutching my face and my dad flipped her over his shoulder just as the automatic timer went off. All my mom could do was stand by helplessly.”

Not A Fan
“I went over to my friend’s house the day she brought home her new baby so I could take family and newborn pictures. I happened to catch this gem. I think the older sister was not a fan.”

Coke Classic
“This is a photo of me and my brother in 1978. It was taken by our father the year before my parents’ divorce. My Mom hates it and even though i do not support the use of drugs I think this photo is special and definitely something you could only get away with in the 70’s.”
