I suspect that most families have a photo (or ten) tucked away in an album that they either don’t realize is truly awful, or that they’ve just kept for posterity’s sake – because there’s an art to taking a truly awful photo. I mean, we often think we look amazing at the time (looking at you, Mom, for making your bridesmaid’s wear maroon velvet bolero vests and matching hats), though sometimes people are just clueless.
These 15 photos are a good mix of every kind of awkward photo, and since they’re not lurking in your mother’s basement, feel free to laugh instead of cringe.
