Hat Trick

“I had just had my third son in less than 4 years. My 2 year-old jumped up on the bed to meet the baby and onto my c-section incision and my 3 year old dropped his pants.”

Discovery Toys

“This pic was taken in the early 90s after my great grandmother had just died. My father had built her coffin and my cousins and I thought it would be fun to play around in it before her burial. I’m the child in the middle.”

Directory Assistance

“Our 2002 church directory family photo. I just told my parents I submitted the photo to AFP and they both said, “I don’t think there’s anything awkward about the picture.”

Gello Shot

“My 2001 school photo. In order to perfect this aesthetic masterpiece, I put a massive amount of gel in my wet hair, then I bent over and swung my hair around and blow dried it upside down until the gel hardened completely… I got a little lightheaded each time, but clearly worth it!”

Surrender

“Our perfect family photo shoot was only a little hampered by my 2 year old granddaughter who decided to throw a complete fit during the sitting. We gave up trying to get her to look good and let her ‘do her own thing.’ She ended up at the bottom of the stairs and we went on without her…so to speak.”
