              The Best Awkward Photos of Couples

              The internet sensation AwkwardFamilyPhotos.com has collected some of their favorite awkward photos of couples submitted to their site. Being that today is Valentines, what better day to share some of these hilarious pictures. From the over the top poses, choice locations or the exchange of ungraceful kisses this set, which contains some of my favorites, delivers quite the punch.

              The site was started by childhood friends Mike and Doug in 2009 when they stumbled on an awkward family photo of their own. They figured others probably had a few of these photos they would like to share as well. So together they created a site and started posting a few of their own photos along with some from their friends. Within a short time the site grew in popularity and now receives millions of hits daily. In celebration of Valentines Day, here are a few of my favorites from their top collection of awkward photos of couples. Enjoy! If you get a kick out of these be sure to go check out more at AwkwardFamilyPhotos.com.
