Sweaty Santa
“Christmas Eve, 1995; Michoacán, México and it was 40 °C (104 °F). My mom really wanted to get a cute photo of me sitting on Santa’s lap, but I wasn’t having it. So we both posed with this poor sweaty Santa and she actually made the thing into a calendar.”

Everybody Garter ‘Round
“This photo is from my wedding day in 2005. I’m not really sure why the photographer thought it would be cool for everyone to touch my garter. What’s even more awkward is that my dad got stuck in the back of the picture!”
