anti-photobomb 

Someone who should appear in a picture whose face is mysteriously absent, often by being misplaced behind another person's head.

The opposite of a photobomb. Whereas a photobomb involves exploding into a photo, an anti-photobomb is more of an implosion, except with the effect of no one noticing.

The introvert's photobomb.
Friend: Hey, here's a picture of all of us. But where's Tim? Maybe that's him--the one who turned last minute?

You: Yeah, that's him. He's shy, you know, so he anti-photobombed.

Reverse Photobomb 

Grabbing someone who is meant to be the centre of attention in a photograph out of the shot at the last second, meaning the photograph is minus a person that is meant to be snapped, as opposed to 'photobombing', where someone not meant to be in a picture gets themselves into it.

The grabbing out is preferably done with a hooked walking cane, in true cartoon fashion.
Chuck: "Dude, Carl is so up his own ass, go and reverse photobomb him out of that shot with all those dames."

Barry: "Let me grab my cane..."

photobombs 

Another word for a nice rack that is only noticed after a picture is taken (as if it were photobombed by said rack). The rack completely hijacks the original focus of the picture much like an intentional photobomb.

The location of the rack with respect to the rest of the picture is also known as the rackground. It is so distracting that the viewer doesn’t even notice that there is a foreground and / or background in the picture.
Come check out the photobombs on this girl. I would've totally asked her out if I had seen her earlier.

I'm just flipping through my pictures and all of a sudden I stumble upon a great set of photobombs... Happy Birthday to me!
