Candy’s Awkward Family Photo Tip #4: How to Achieve That Desired “Drugged Up Toddler” Look

Aug 15, 2011 | Filed Under: Uncategorized | Tags: Candy's Awkward Family Photos

Once in a while, a parenting blog comes along with photographs so touching, it makes you feel like having kids all over again. This is not that blog.

Pro family photography tip: If you want an extra-special-looking picture in which your two-year-old appears high on Vicodin, I suggest dragging her onto the couch for a photo session after two straight days of refusing to take a nap. No need to use the “glazed-over eyes” effect in Photoshop. All natural!

I love my little boy, but these days we always reach a point where I get seriously tempted to buy a certain book by Adam Mansbach. Go ahead, look it up on Amazon.
