If you've never considered it before, hiring a professional to capture your special moments is a worthy investment. A professional photographer is usually equipped with a variety of tricks that make the lighting, mood, and setting look like they're straight out of a magazine, and every parent loves a beautiful image of their precious baby!

Unfortunately, babies march to the beat of their own drum and are not always 100% on board with the grand ideas of parents and photographers. Between the spit-up, the pee, and especially the poo, there are so many things that can go wrong. As you can clearly see in these hilarious photos, if something can go wrong, it probably will!

If you're a parent, then this is the laughter you need to get through your day, reminding you that your kids aren't the only ones who can be gross and that you're not alone. If you're not a parent... well, these photos might serve as a form of birth control.
