Today I received an email that made me laugh so hard! I wanted to share these hilarious comments and photos from none other than the infamous Olan Mills Studios....I remember when I was about 10 years old and our family had pictures done with Olan Mills and I thought we had hit the jackpot...how on earth could we have ever afforded to go there??!!
here's a little hump day entertainment!!! The comments by each image are not my own..I hope no one gets offended...

This dude wore a tie for nothing.
Olan Mills backdrop #4: Bucolic Meadow with Split Rail Fence. Is that an animal carcass behind her?
A pose like this will get you kicked right out of the Convention.
Olan Mills Backdrop #11: The Library, one of their most popular themes, as seen in this photo of the young Unabomber and his wife.
You'd think Pearle Vision would throw in another two pairs for free.
I got a 20 that says he drives a Camaro.
Someone spent money on this.
It's so cute when couples have matching hairdos
She's looking for the speaker that's piping in 'Muskrat Love' so she can blast it with her laser eyes.

Oh my gosh! So funny! That cracked me up.... thanks! Now I know what I want to strive for in my career! ;)
(01.09.08)Ooooh my. I'm laughing out loud right now, hard. Like if I was drinking milk it'd be coming out of my nose, hard.
(01.09.08)LOL, I am actually laughing so hard that I am having an asthma attack.. Gosh, I am thinking about the awful photo my family had done there and how hard my kids laugh at it when they go to my parents home and see it. Good stuff!
(01.10.08)You know what's funny (and sad)? I used to work at Olan Mills in high school...for a VERY brief period! It was horrible. These photos are funny. I can't even pick my favorite they are so bad.
(01.10.08)HAAA...that is so AWESOME!! The sad thing is I bet everyone has one of those family photos they could dig up in a heart beat!!
(01.11.08)I have laughed and continue to laugh at these since the first of January when my beloved husband felt it was necessary to invade my inbox with them. I am a pro photographer by trade and my mother once held an Olan Mills club membership card and we were forced into that dark orifice of hell at least three times a year to have our pimples and bad hair captured for perpetuity on what might possibly be the most ridiculous backdrop ever to have been exposed to the public. The captions are what really makes this thing though. Whoever dreamed that up was either high as a kite or has an amazing sense of humor. Bucolic meadow? ROFLMAO - mirthful Lance? ROFL!!!
(01.13.08)These are too funny, I laughed out loud reading the captions! Good post Julie!
(01.16.08)These are hilarious....too bad you don't have the rest of the photos from that email posted. There were some good ones.
(01.18.08)It made me crack up laughing my @$$ off!
If you want the email, let me know. I had to send it to everyone I know, cause it was that damn funny!
