My Niece Is A Psycho

Ok she’s not really a psychoShe just looks like one.

 

A few months ago, I had an absolutely brilliant idea.
I’ve been getting into photography more and more, and my favorite photographers are always the ones with brilliant and interesting concepts. I’ve got a brilliant and interesting concept, I thought.

I’d steal my niece for an afternoon. I’d cover her in war paint. I’d teach her to shoot a toy bow and arrow, and she’d run around and stalk her stuffed animals in a fun, childish game. At the end of the afternoon, she’d sit down with her (unharmed) stuffed animals and they’d all have a tea party.

….except there’s really no way to animate stuffed animals in a photo, especially when you’re dealing with a squirrely six-year-old who has absolutely no patience for things like propping up her toys in order to make them look alive, and so this cute little afternoon of playtime turned into something that made my niece look like a sadistic psychopath that kills animals and then sets up their dead carcasses around her and forces them to have a posthumous tea party.

Whoooopsiiies.

Yeah…that doesn’t look creepy at all. She’s just innocently snuggling with a dead animal, no big deal.

 

And so, ladies and gentleman, that’s how I singlehandedly turned my niece into a psychopathic murderer.

 

Dear Producers of Criminal Minds,

I expect royalties when you turn this into a storyline.

Love,

Kristen
