My Buddy
“As a ballsy 8 year-old, I clearly had a specific vision and a mother who humored me. To this day, I wonder what that poor photographer was thinking.”

The Thing
“This pic was taken at mom’s nursing home a few years ago. Funny thing is, mom’s just sitting there with a big smile on her face as though she has no idea that “thing” is behind her…”

Jacob’s Ladder
“In 1989 my dad (on the far right) grandfather (holding the ladder) and family friend were building a deck off the back of our house. After they got the first boards up my mother said “looks nice, but how are you going to get the ladder out?” They forgot to move the ladder before securing the last board for the frame!! They ended up cutting the ladder apart to get it out.”

She’s Got Pull
“We had darling two-year-olds for our ring bearer and flower girl. While we were trying to get a picture of me and my niece, the flower girl, our spirited ring bearer decided to have a yank at my veil which was of course cemented on to my head with a thousand bobby pins and hair spray. I thought he was going to pull out a chunk! Children are such angels.”

The Flockers
“My mom and I got our photos done, notice the Native American influence in the hair beading. With all the feathers we look like roosters. Moms expression lets you know shes thinking cock-a-doodle-doo!”

Green Day
“When I was 17 my parents thought it would be a good idea to take us all to pose for one of those glamour shots. This photo would of been a lot more awkward had I been allowed to wear my own make-up though maybe the glamour make-up and heavy air brushing adds to the uncomfortable.”

The Magnet
“To be honest with you, I never thought of this as an awkward photo until recently. Really though, I’m not completely sold on it being awkward at all just because I have a mullet, my cats are wearing ties, and I’m wearing a jacket with no shirt on.”
