We had school pictures taken a few weeks ago and they came back this week. Those of us in the front office who saw them first, had a few good laughs as we snuck a peek through them. Once they were distributed, there were a few more laughs as each of the teachers saw their picture and we were making fun of each others photos. One teacher said, "please tell me the truth. REALLY! Tell me this is a bad picture. I want to believe I don't really look like this." It was a bad picture. REALLY BAD. She was relieved.
Look at this! The lighting is bad, the background is hideous, I'm not sitting up straight, I look washed out, etc. etc.
This isn't the first time I've had a bad school picture. Case in point...5th grade:
Could I have looked any more unhappy/cranky/scared/mad? I'm not sure what this expression is.
But my all time favorite is this one of Jeff. I think it was first grade. This goes down in our family history as one of the funniest school pictures ever taken. (sorry Jeff, this is too funny to keep to keep to ourselves!)

How are you?
: ) Kris
haha. Isn't it awesome that you still get to take school pictures?
I've got one of those 5th grade pictures like yours too, but I have a set of buck teeth added.
Your school picture could have been so cute if it wasn't for that terrible background and washed out lighting. We may of had to put up with that in the 80s but this is 2012. Come on school picture takers get with the times.
School pictures are hands down. . . the worst.
Love it! I hate school pictures, and I have yet to find ones that are worth purchasing- I find them so hilarious, but yours is not THAT bad- there are far worse!
Thanks for sharing Jeff's with us!
My school pictures were usually hideous when I was a kid and they continue to be hideous now that I'm a teacher. I wonder if schools actually search for the WORST photographer they can employ. Your is actually pretty nice, but the background is very, very BLUE! Enjoy your week.
Aw, little Jeffrey is so cute! Even when he's making such a weird face. If only he were that cute when making weird faces now...
