The Jump Off
“Photographer asked us to do ‘the jump.’ Clearly, my sister didn’t hold her dress down properly and somehow, my husband’s neck disappeared.”

Falling Slowly
“My daughter and I had been holding hands and she was leaning away from me and our photographer caught the perfect moment! So the rest of us are looking fabulous while my 2 year old is crashing into the pavement!”

The Final Frontier
“My daughter’s father gave his whole family space outfits for Christmas in hopes to get the family together for a photo session. I thought it was the oddest idea ever.”

Roller Derby
“This photo was taken in the Fall of 1966. My Dad just returned from a hunting trip with the hide & antlers of his prized 5 point bull elk. It was Saturday night and my older sister & I just had our hair rolled for church the next morning. I was obviously thrilled to have my picture taken with the stupid elk and rollers in my hair.”

Replica
“My brother and sister-in-law got married about 17 years ago and my kids were asked to be in their wedding party… my son was the ring bearer, my oldest daughter was a junior bridesmaid and my youngest daughter was dressed in a miniature replica of the bride’s gown. In this family photo, we look like a crazy family that just married off our two youngest children, my older daughter looks like she has one oddly placed prosthetic leg, and I’m rocking some sweet shoulder pads.”

Urban Cowboy
“This was one of my most awkward years, early 80’s when Urban Cowboy was blowing up at the box office. My school decided that spring photos would be exactly that. Well I am not sure if that was the greatest of ideas, but its given my family, facebook and now hopefully AFP plenty more laughs!!!”

Enough
“After taking a number of pics of my gorgeous little girl she decided that she had enough. Funnily enough, this pic probably shows her true colors!”
