“Completely explainable stock photos everybody should always use.” – Awkward Stock Photos

11/3/14: I take a terrible picture, so I have total sympathy for the subjects of bad photos. However, these people have no excuse. These are stock photos styled so bizarrely, so distressingly, so hilariously wrong that there was no good reason for them to exist. Until along came AwkwardStockPhotos.com, the Etsomnia of the stock photo world.

I’d love to be a fly on the wall for the taking of some of these unforgettable images. Don’t you wish they’d gone back and interviewed the subjects about what they thought of what they were being asked to do and how the photographers prevailed upon them to do it?

There are some real howlers here. I hope you enjoy them as much as I did.
