    This could be the upteenth photo and the last one on the roll. People don’t realize it’s easy to take pictures these days, but back then you had to make due with how many you could take. This could be the only picture in focus where the baby didn’t move or cry or whatever the fuck babies do.

    These days you just keep making more pictures until you get one that’s good enough. Babies will try to fuck up most pictures you try to make.

      Or until the people being forced to pose say “ENOUGH, I’m not doing any more photos!”. The pain of agreeing to one photo and then you’re standing there for ten minutes so they can get the “perfect one”.

      Excuse me, but we have a fun conspiracy going here and you’re ruining it with your facts about film.

      They hate this kid. There’s no other explanation. wink

    It looks like she’s not even holding the baby, she’s gripping onto his arm for dear life as the baby creeps up behind them

      Because they had their official status as badass Mexicans revoked in the intervening time.

      Not because of the kid, just some light insurance fraud 🤷
