I don't know how else to describe Tierney Gearon's family photography other than with the word 'dysfunctional.' I feel as though there is no such thing as a 'dysfunctional family' considering that every family is dysfunctional in its own way.
That said, there is some exceptional 'dysfunctionality' going on in Tierney Gearon's portfolio. It's true that she exposes "mother and children with such honesty and tenderness to the point of drawing controversy," as Life Lounge observes.
