Nurse Adds Hysterically Terrifying Touches to 11 Classic Newborn Photos

In recent years, photographers specializing in newborn photos have really been earning creativity points! The most memorable example of this is the Anne Geddes-inspired ‘needles’ baby photo that shined a light on the fertility struggles that so many couples face. Of course, there is also the photographer mom who cleverly used pizza to illustrate her baby’s milestones. Heck, even Beyoncé traded in the Sear’s Portrait Studio (like the Queen B herself would dare be seen in a big box store–yeah right!) for a very ethereal, very dreamy shot of her twins.

Yep, we’ve pretty much been addicted to these captivating and unique baby portraits for a while now, but the most recent viral set might be our absolute favorite. The photos were shot by Amy Haehl of Coffee Creek Studio who is a talented photographer with, apparently, a seriously twisted sense of humor.

You see, one day, the nurse-turned-photographer decided that it might be fun to Photoshop a set of full teeth onto an image of a posing babe. Ever since then, she has continued her unconventional editing process–and the Internet is eating it up! In an interview with CafeMom, Haehl explains that her initial inspiration was a simple one.

“I just thought it was so funny,” the photographer said, “and would be a great way to put a smile on people’s faces — literally.”

The images have certainly put a smile on our face! Even if the smile is mixed with just a lit-tle bit of horror!

Without further ado, here are 11 of the silliest–and, depending on who you ask, most terrifying– baby photos you’ll ever see…

  1. The Widest Grin

    This kid’s got a winning smile! It’s a creepy one–but it’s still a winning one!

  2. Rosemary’s Baby

    If a baby ever shoots you this mischevious look…run!!

  3. A Smiling Dreamer

    What is this baby dreaming about? Floss? Toothpaste? His long-awaited first trip to the dentist?

  4. Twinning Teeth

    Two full sets of gigantic baby teeth is better than one!

  5. The Hat Trick

    Her teeth AL-MOST upstage that adorable hat. Almost.

  6. The Giggling Girl

    When a baby smiles in her sleep it SHOULD be cute. Not the case here. Here, it’s just unsettling…

  7. Twinning Teeth, Part Deux

    They’re baaaaaaack!

  8. Giant Teeth, Tiny Bed

    Forget this kid’s massive chompers, get him a bigger bed. STAT!

  9. The Bucket Beauty

    We never thought we would say this, but teeth actually suit this newborn well! (Though, we’re not quite sure why she’s been placed in a bucket. And, why she’s so chill about it…)

  10. Wild Fangs

    She’s the cutest vampire-in-training!

  11. The Denture Diva

    Her outfit is saying “nursery,” but her smile is saying “old folks home.”

We’d love to hear your thoughts on these “toothy” baby photos! Are you a fan of Haehl’s edits? Do you think they are creepy? Have you ever partaken in a humorous newborn shoot with your baby?
