  11. 5,321 votes Pump Up the Jam!!!! “One can only imagine what was going through my stepdad’s mind when he choose his “outfit” for a day out at Disney World. I’d like to think that his decision came down to the extreme temperatures that come with Orlando, FL in July. However, that doesn’t explain the tube socks. It’s shocking, but the girl with the duck on her head (me) doesn’t look so silly standing beside a man in a belly shirt. This picture is legendary in my family so I’m happy to share it with the world…with my stepdad’s permission of course.“

  12. What Did They Win, You Ask? • $15,000 cash and 14 nights at Embassy Suites Waikiki Beach Walk, Embassy Suites Lake Tahoe Hotel & Ski Resort, or Embassy Suites Greenville Golf Resort. • 5 runners-up won two nights at an Embassy Suites Hotel of their choice and a signed copy of the Awkward Family Photos book.

  13. Questions!! • Was social media necessary in increasing the popularity of the contest? • Did awkward family photos.com benefit more from the Embassy Suites campaign than the hotel itself • Did this campaign actually lead to more hotel bookings?
