Awkward Family Photos That Scream 'My Family Are Lunatics'
Good family photos are hard to capture. Between the kids crying, the parents yelling at the kids to stop crying, and the kids crying even harder because everyone's yelling, it can be a bit of a sh*t show. Truthfully, every family has some moments they've caught on film that are too cringeworthy to revisit, but now, thanks to Instagram account Awkward Family Photos, you can submit them and have them remembered forever. Here are some of the funniest and awkward family photos that we saw.
“It was my last week of wrestling and the last week that I would have the varsity uniform, so I wanted to get some action shots and my mom was the only person around to capture the action.”
“My buddy Josh and his older sister and brother when they were little guys. Apparently when the photographer saw all the prints from the photo shoot, he gave this one to his mom for free because it’s just so hilarious."
“My father insisted that all of us must begin lessons in karate after The Karate Kid came out in the 1980’s. His pride in our accomplishments led to a family photo.”
‘My mother decided it was cheaper to pose all of us together with our hobbies. Still trying to figure out why my youngest brother was wearing a German outfit.”
“Christmas 2009. We went to the mall to take a picture with Santa and seemingly nothing went wrong… my son didn’t cry, the line was manageable but Santa’s attention was focused elsewhere.”
“This photo is of my father-in-law, his sister, and their dog when they were kids. The dog was very loved by their mother and she thought it needed to be included in the background of her children."
"My fashion victim dad was just a legitimate fan of parachute pants and had like, 10 different pairs of them. He thought it would be hilarious to get my brother and I matching pants, and so this very 90s picture was born."
"My German grandparents on a trip to Disneyland in California in 1995... my Grandma apparently didn’t enjoy the ride while Grandpa had the time of his life."
“My wife was the flower girl for her cousin’s wedding and decided to slide down the railing while the bird seed was flying after the happy couple was married. This was the result.”
