I was at a high school today doing picture day retakes. Naturally, on retake day at a high school, I get the really picky people who need a million shots before the smile or the hair is just right. Most of the people on retake day are pretty insecure.

Today a girl came to the camera and handed me her proof sheets. The original picture was actually pretty nice. I thought to myself this is gonna be another one of those ten minute sessions before she is satisfied with herself. To my surprise, she actually liked the original photo. It was her mom who didn’t like it. I asked her if her mom mentioned anything specific that she didn’t like in the photo. The girl said, “my face.” Oh.
