An Easter Arrest
“This was taken Easter morning. I am the second from the left, and had just been bailed out of jail by my parents. I had spent the night in jail in Ferguson, Missouri for taking a case of beer out of an open garage.”

To Each Their Own
“It was 2002. We had taken in a young man who needed a place to live. Our own children were working hard to maintain their own individuality in a culture which prided itself on ‘sameness.’ So, we took the opportunity to have a family photo taken.”

Hair Club
“This family photo was taken at Sears in 1987 as present to our mom. I guess you can tell we all loved heavy metal music. The guy on the back right is the oldest of the four brothers and yes that’s his real hair. The one in the front left is me, the youngest of the four, and I was pissed that I had to take this picture. We asked if they had an alley way for the back drop, but had to settle for a plain one.”

White Rabbit
“This photo was taken at K-Mart when I was child. Only when I was an adult was I able to appreciate the full creepiness of it.”

Dadcation
“This is a picture of my Dad during our 1997 trip to Disney World in Florida. Fanny packs and mid-riff shirts, and nut-hugging shorts were Dad’s preferred ensemble. He had started a mullet a couple of years before this and refused to cut it until he retired. He’s still working, but my mom told him she wouldn’t go with him on their 32nd Anniversary cruise celebration unless he cut it. He finally gave in.”

That Magic Moment
“This is a photo of my parents and I. The camera went off before we were ready and it just captured the loving moment perfectly. So we bought the wallet-size.”
