This hilarious Christmas card has gone completely viral
A hilarious Christmas card featuring the best baby face swap we’ve ever seen is winning the internet.
Amy and Ryan Weise hired their friend and photographer Casey Brodley for a traditional family photoshoot, but the end result is anything but and it's going viral.
Everyone has the same face: that of a chubby and uncomfortable baby.
“Amy asked if it was possible to do a face swap, which photographers sometimes do with photos to fix closed eyes or if there is a better expression on one person in another photo,” Casey tells Yahoo Lifestyle.
“What I’d normally do is take the person’s face from another photo in the same sequence and replace it in the original image.”
Casey normally tries to avoid Photoshop as much as possible.
“The other photos that I delivered in their gallery were completely straightforward family photos. But I have a kind of weird sense of humour, and this photo came about after I sent the initial sneak peeks.”
Amy pointed out that “she loved her son’s face in all the pictures” (who wouldn’t?), so Casey thought it would be funny to swap her face with her son’s face instead of switching her face with another one of her own.
“Originally I only put the baby’s face over Amy’s face, but once I saw how it looked on Ryan’s head I couldn’t help myself. Their daughter is adorable, but I liked how bizarre everyone looked with their face swapped for the baby’s face.”
So she replaced all the Weise’s faces with the baby boy’s face, and texted Amy and Ryan the new version asking, ‘How does this look?’

Luckily, the couple has a similar sense of humour.
“They laughed! The actual text thread says, ‘Bahahahaha this will be our Christmas card.’”
Casey included it in the final gallery so “they could use it as a prank on Facebook or something,” she says. “I never thought they would actually make it their holiday card!”
Alas, they did, and it’s equal parts hilarious and endearing.
Casey isn’t that surprised though. “How could they NOT choose to make that their holiday card?”
