Animal Planet
“This is the photo my mom used to send out with her annual Christmas letter in 2006. It’s my dad, mom, myself, and my brother. And ALL the pets! None of which my dad claimed, I’m pretty sure he didn’t want to claim us either.”

Glamorous Shots
“I was 12 years old and wanted ‘Glamour Shots.’ My parents wanted to save money so we did them at home and this is what we came up with.”

On A Pedestal
“While I was away at college my family had to take a portrait for a church directory, so they took a framed photo of me. It was the photographer’s great idea to put me on a pedestal. Also, my Dad and brother had been fighting over something trivial, my Mom was annoyed, and my youngest brother habitually refused to smile for any picture.”

The Inauguration
“My dad was a judge for many years. This was taken at his first inauguration. I was not in the mood for yet another picture and REALLY had to pee. The look on my mom’s face says it all. Through clenched teeth she was probably saying something like, ‘Get your GD hands out of your privates!'”

Possum In Residence
“A possum took up residence in our garage and my dad (naturally) felt like we should have a family photo with it while my mom looked like she was questioning all of her life decisions.”
