Twins
“I thought it would be so cute to have my daughters picture made with her twin doll. Let’s just say she hates the doll, the gowns, and the picture. I terrified my child.”

Collage Education
“In the 1980s families purchased these picture collages. We have two full sets and it seems matching fisherman knit sweaters and perms were required for our photoshoots.”

Mermaids In Front
“This photo was taken on an Easter trip to Florida in April 1971, where we visited the Weeki Wachee Springs and saw the Mermaid Show, which I loved. I think our dad had my younger sister and me pose with these ‘mermaids’ in order to have an excuse to take a picture of the women.'”

Family In The Raw
“When your amazing artist Dad says you’re taking a family photo and his photographer friend is going to shoot it, you do it with no question. Oh, and Dad wants it to be unique so it will be in black and white. And we will appear shirtless. He’s the artist, so he knows best, right?
This is the first (and only) time this photo has hit the light of day.
Note: There is this group photo and we each took individual photos. Each print is 18″ x 24″ in size.
Enjoy, cruel world.”

Sisterfreude
“Easter 1985. I am the gleeful four-year-old that just sent her little sister running away in tears. All my mom wanted was a nice picture of my sister and I in our cute dresses.”

The Super Bowl
“I was looking through some old albums at home and found this gem. It’s my aunt and I. I’m not sure what was going on in the photo, but I’m guessing that I just got a new haircut and was not so happy with it.”

Leg Day
