Photographer botches family portraits in the funniest way possible

Hilarious!  Glad the family has a sense of humour!  Their faces all look like plastic.

And, sadly for the photographer,  she and her studio/business put their names on the images.

So much for their future business....

OMG!  That is so awful it's hilarious.  Looks like the photographer is trying to make test dummy or manakin faces.

Funny.

But should we believe it? Everything I can find on the web traces back to a single source. I haven't seen a report from a local TV station or newspaper where the family or the photographer is allegedly located. Not a single image or video clip of the family. If such a story claimed to come out of the Phoenix metro area our local reporters would be running interviews with the victims at the very least.

Can anyone in MO check local publications to see if there is any pre-existing reference to either the family or the photographer. Like a phone listing in a printed directory. Or how about a testimonial from someone that you actually know who has ever been in contact with anyone in this story.

That's pretty funny.  I'm with Richard on this one.  There are countless fake meme's out there on the internet these days, it's hard to believe ANYTHING any more.  I don't even trust Snopes....

Still, pretty good PS work for it's purpose anyway...

Here a link to the photographer's bio:

Still could all be fake, I guess.

I looked at the second link that Sandy posted, and it certainly looks like a joke to me.  A couple of the same images are included at the end of the thread.

I don't think it's fake.  I think it's definitely done on purpose.  I just can't quite figure out what the purpose is.
