Christmas is a time for family bonding and cuddling up by the fire, giving you plenty of opportunities to whip out the camera and pose for some really festive family pictures...

Step forward Awkward Family Photos, who have loaned us the best bad Christmas shots from families of all shapes, ages and sizes to give you some Christmas cheer. Our personal favourites are the family in their matching onesies and Father Christmas with a black eye. What's yours?

Like these? Don't miss fabulously bad family holiday photos, pregnancy pictures to give you a chuckle and Halloween howlers to make you cackle.

And for even more awkwardness, check the new Awkward Family Pet book, out now.
