Embrace the Awkward: $99 Photo Sessions That Are Better Than a Trip to JCPenney

Ready to lean into the hilariously awkward moments of life and have them immortalized forever? Let’s talk about awkward photo sessions—the trend that’s taking over social media and turning cringy, quirky moments into pure gold. If you’ve ever looked at those old department store photo sessions and thought, “We could totally do that… but funnier,” then this is for you.

What is an awkward photo session, anyway?

Think of it as a planned throwback to those classic poses, but with an intentional twist. These sessions celebrate the slightly uncomfortable, totally unique, and hilariously real dynamics between siblings, couples, or even best friends. Forget perfection—this is all about embracing your quirks and capturing the awkwardness in style. Matching sweaters? Go for it. Unnecessary props? Yes, please. Cheesy smiles? Absolutely.

Awkward photo shoots are about stepping outside the box, leaning into the fun, and letting your personalities shine through. They’re perfect for those who appreciate a good laugh and want their photos to reflect the playful, lighthearted side of life. Whether you’re recreating a vintage family portrait vibe or coming up with completely new awkward poses, these sessions are all about making memories and having fun while doing it.

Why settle for JCPenney when you can make it iconic?

Sure, department store studios had their time to shine, but why not take it to the next level? My awkward photo sessions combine that nostalgic vibe with a modern twist. We’ll find the perfect location in Boulder City, Henderson, or Vegas—and yes, we can even do a studio session for an extra fee if you want to go full retro. Let’s make it even better than those mall photo shoots of the past, with all the awkwardness but way more personality.

No more one-size-fits-all backdrops or stiff poses. Instead, you’ll get a customized session that’s tailored to your unique sense of humor and style. Imagine an awkwardly intimate side hug with your sibling or an overly dramatic prom pose with your best friend. The possibilities are endless, and the results will have everyone talking.

Here’s what’s included:

Session Length: 15-20 minutes of pure awkward glory

Photos: 15 digital images (enough to flood your group chats and Instagram)

Location: Boulder City, Henderson, or Vegas (with an extra fee for studio sessions)

Why you’ll love it:

1. It’s hilarious. Posing in over-the-top awkward ways is basically guaranteed to have you laughing the entire time. Think about how many inside jokes will come out of this experience!

2. It’s unique. How many people can say they have professional photos of themselves mid-cheesy side hug or holding the most random props?

3. It’s memorable. These aren’t just photos; they’re moments that highlight the fun, quirky side of your relationships.

Awkward photo sessions are also an excellent way to celebrate milestones in a way that feels truly you. Whether it’s a sibling reunion, a fun date idea for couples, or a chance to bond with your best friend, these sessions give you something to laugh about for years to come. Plus, who doesn’t want a little humor in their photo albums?

Ideas to make your session extra special:

1. Bring props! Oversized stuffed animals, random kitchen utensils, or an old trophy you found in the attic—the more random, the better.

2. Match your outfits. Think denim-on-denim, holiday sweaters, or something delightfully mismatched.

3. Pick a theme. Whether it’s retro 80s, awkward prom, or “family portrait that got a little too real,” a theme can take your session to the next level.
