Awkward Family Photos

Samuel Butler once said "Every manâ€™s work, whether it be literature or music or pictures or architecture or anything else, is always a portrait of himself."

If thatâ€™s true, than God help Mike Bender and Doug Chernack, who waded into the toxic slurry of bad mullets, spiral perms, skin conditions, leg warmers, wet pants, creepy Moms, funny uncles, and truly disturbing Santas, and came back with this hilarious collection of awkward family photos.

Awkward Family Photos

reminds anyone with a dusty shoebox full of snapshots of unfortunate fashion choices, band trips, braces, bad bridesmaidsâ€™ dresses and that one time you got talked into dressing up and going to the Renaissance Faire, that you are not alone. This isnâ€™t just a book, itâ€™s a public service on the page, a living, breathing, laugh-out-loud reminder that no matter how badly you dressed, how oddly you posed, and how weird Uncle Dave who lived in the basement was, somebody out there had it worse. Particularly the girl on page 77.
