Dad copies daughter's selfies
Selfies of a Washington teen and her father

WASHINGTON -- One Washington dad has us doing a double take.

He's been copying his daughter's selfies and now the pictures are going viral.

It all started when Chris Martin thought his 19-year-old daughter was taking a few too many selfies.

So, Chris has been posting similar photos periodically over the last year.

All of a sudden they took off getting more than 12,000 likes.

Chris' daughter Cassie says she thinks the pictures are so popular because it's something parents and teens can laugh about together.

"A lot of parents can relate to it because their teenage daughters teenage sons will take selfies all the time," Cassie said.

"There's so many bad things going on, it's just something dumb to laugh at ... to take you away from it," Chris said. "If I can make someone laugh in Japan or Australia, that's great!"

Cassie says overall, the feedback has been positive and that's made her appreciate her dad even more.

Chris adds he's blown away by the response.
