Almost no one ever likes their yearbook pictures, and with a good reason: yearbook pictures are terrible. I seriously think they recruit yearbook photographers, passport/driving license photographers, and mugshot photographers from the same art school--probably called something like 'The Greater Northwest University of Excessively Unflattering Photography'. They just seem to have this remarkable talent for being able to bring out each and every one of your worst features, including ones you didn't even know you had.
In short, yearbook pictures suck.
Either sophomore or junior year in high school, there was an error with my friend's yearbook picture and somehow the only photo they had was one in which she was caught laughing and blinking at the same time. Not a good look for her, or indeed anyone else. So they re-took the photo and used the new one, but apparently never bothered to edit and proofread the yearbook before they sent it to publishing, because my friend ended up having two photos in the yearbook, side by side--including the mid-giggle-blink picture.
Poor Denise.
