What You'll Mostly Find Here home décor :: gardening :: food :: entertaining :: diy :: art & graphic design :: fashion :: pop culture :: and on occasion something historical, political, or scientific

This was a practice where the mother, often disguised or hiding, often under a spread, holds her baby tightly for the photographer to insure a sharply focused image. This is so strange and creepy. I’m trying to think of a modern equivalent that people in a 100 years’ time will look back on as a bizarre antiquated habit. More at the source and in the Hidden Mother Flickr pool, which is also full of examples of how gendered clothing for children has changed over time (i.e. lots of little dudes in dresses). Also note how the advent of digital photography means you can now take 50 shots of your kid looking as sour-faced and morose as most of the ones here do but just share that one smiling happy picture that makes your child look just the cutest and sweetest.
