Mom's fantasies captured on camera using dark humour
Updated | By Jane Linley-Thomas
Looking at these pictures, do you think they're funny or just weird?
Talk about a dark and twisted portrayal of suburban bliss?
Photographer, actress, and model Susan Copich from New York has created domestic scenes using her daughters and her husband. The family posed in her photo series called 'Domestic Bliss'. The series was designed to spark conversation around family issues coupled with issues that affect society, such as suicide and gun control.

These images are a narrative and may make you laugh nervously or think she is just plain cooked?
Whatever your reaction is, I somehow find these images more refreshing than the stock standard smoke and mirrors of how social media portrays the 'perfect' family.

Day in and day out, our newsfeeds are plastered with the 'perfect' couple, mother, husband, holiday, and home. However, these photos are changing that.
I love how real some people are online, speaking their truth and being real about reality. Please note that there is a difference between being transparent and over sharing.
