We’ve all seen the glory that is the Awkward Family Photos site, so we’re familiar with how good pictures can go seriously wrong in spite of (or because of?) the amount of time and effort we put into creating them. Here’s a sampling of hilarious family portraits that got so messed up, they became completely EPIC!

“Runs” in The Family
iFunny
You know you’re a mother when you’d rather catch your baby’s liquid poop in your cupped hands than ruin the carpet.

“That’s Some ‘Snuggly’ Baby”
Awkward Family Photos
We’re sure he’s actually a very cute baby… not that you can tell from this hysterically unflattering picture.

“Get a good picture of all the kids,” they said. “It’ll be fun!” They said.

Pay No Attention to the Humping Dogs

Way to photobomb, fellas! They belong on this list of the most famous animal photobombers on the internet.

The child reaching down a woman’s shirt is clearly free from inhibitions. Oh, to be young again!

Welcome to Dorksville
Awkward Family Photos
We hate to break it to you, kid, but you’re doomed to be dorky like your ‘rents. Not that there’s anything wrong with that! Dorks can be cool.

The Family That Smokes Together
Awkward Family Photos
Gets emphysema together? Hilarious. EYE ROLL
(Seriously, whose idea was this???! Dad, was it you? We bet it was you.)
10 of 25
Speaking of Bad Dads
Awkward Family Photos
We’re not sure why Dad chose his particular “dance” move. Keepin’ it classy, pops!

I Believe I Can Fly
Liz Hansen
Photographer Liz Hansen was taking family reunion pics when she captured this funny (and scary) image. Never fear, the baby is okay!!

Sweet Relief
Kirsty Grant Photography
Al Ferguson, a twenty-six year-old blogger from Kent, England, was holding his newborn Ted during a photoshoot when… poop happened.
The best part? The satisfied look on little Ted’s face when he’s letting loose. We all know that feeling, Ted!

Split Decision
Awkward Family Photos
According to Awkward Family Photos, this family didn’t want to take the same boring, posed shots that everyone else was taking, so they thought outside the box a bit.
In retrospect, maybe the brother’s head placement was a little ill chosen.

No Babies Were Hurt in the Making of This Photo
Ellen
Ellen Degeneres was the first to feature a funny picture of a baby taking a nose dive at the end of a long line of siblings and cousins. Timberrrrr!

Mom, Dad, and Little Up-Chuck
The baby probably felt so much better after he spit up. Hey, spit happens! The owner of the head he spit up on may not have agreed.

Take That, Mom
Awkward Family Photos
Poor mom does so much, and puts up with so much. Let’s hope this little guy got her a nice present for Mother’s Day that year.

Welcome To The World

Please let this be a posed picture. Please?
Either way, what an inauspicious introduction to the world! Let’s hope it gets better from here on out, kiddo.

Kid, Meet Cement
Awkward Family Photos
Moments before, this little girl had been tugging on her mother’s hand, when suddenly she just let go. The camera caught her just at the perfect time… right before the pavement did.

Daughter Down
This family was going for “carefree” and wound up achieving “Alert CPS” status.

Oh Holy Fright
The Heavy
We don’t blame dad for not wanting to wear those cheesy matching pajamas, but… couldn’t he put something on? Anything?
23 of 25
Mom’s All Choked Up
The Heavy
This classic picture from the 80s captures so many things, from the son’s “hilarious” personality to the daughter’s seething hatred for her mother simmering quietly under a calm surface.
