From wrapping your arms around the cousins you only see once a year, to posing in the itchy jumper knitted by your granny, we’ve all had an awkward family photo or two.
But these snaps, uploaded to AwkwardFamilyPhotos.com, show the strangest and most bizarre festive family snaps, from a group that posed in Christmas presents to another that dressed up as snowmen.
One set of photos shows a couple pulling up their jumpers and pushing their post-lunch Christmas stomachs out to touch each other.
In another, a family forewent clothes altogether and posed naked with just their presents covering up their modesty.
