I would like to promote a local photographer who took photos of our ~2-week-old newborn (and us) for free in order to develop her skills and her portfolio.  Natalie Abraham was extremely kind and patient and you can judge the results for yourself.

Students are apparently not allowed to accept money for their work, but you can tell when someone is just dialing it in and when they are sincere.  Natalie spent five hours at our house.  She offered to take more pictures in the summer, also for free.  She’d made some of the props herself (some of the knitting and the tutu).

I believe we should support our artists.  Like Natalie!
