A few months later, the Zaring family receive the photos, with a big surprise: the photoshop did not go as planned, as the mother elaborated:
I’ve never laughed so much in my life. My kids were so confused. They thought that it was a joke. They said they looked Lego men.

Every member of the family looked like they had an alien’s face! The photographer’s explanation? Her teacher never taught her how to retouch photos so, when she tried to correct the shadows, it turned out to be a failure.
But it doesn’t matter, the Zaring made the most of the situation and posted the photos on social media to make some buzz. And it was a success: their failed photos have been shared almost 400,000 times! The photographer has become famous, despite her mistake!
