Its a fact of life: Nice family photos never go viral, as one family in St. Louis recently discovered.
Pam and Dave Zaring hired a photographer to take what they assumed would be lovely family photos.
When they received the final prints, they were shocked because the images had been retouched to the point where the family looked more like Legos or robots rather than their usual selves.
Their 8-year-old son, Connor, couldnt believe what he was seeing.
I was thinking, like, What the heck is this? he told Inside Edition.
Pam Zaring was also shocked ― especially after she paid $250 to a person who claimed to be a professional photographer.
This is too funny to keep to ourselves, she told Inside Edition.
We laughed until we cried, Dave Zaring added.
So the Zaring shared the bizarrely retouched pics with the world via Facebook.
As the Zarings noted in their post, the photographer blamed the botched pics on the fact they were taken on a sunny day, which made for really awful shadows. Also, the photographer claimed her professor never taught her to retouch photos properly.

The dad in the After pic looks like what you get after you collect on your “Replace-a-Dad” insurance policy.

Looks like someone did in photoshop what that Spanish woman did with paint when she restored a fresco: she turned a monk into what looked like a monkey.

GMTA. That’s exactly what it reminded me of.
Was that photographer in Italy a few years ago?

Looks like it was touched up — very poorly — with some kind of photo editing software.
