Reminder: children pictures by a professional photographer are really worth the money ...

(Personal experience opinion department, not even personally acquainted with one, used sparingly, not a 10k camera owner.)

Would you please not be so gutter-minded - I have two young ones, and the professional pics I have of them are worth every penny. The reminder is for those in the same boat that may want to spend the money instead of relying on their own N megapixel camera ...

Did you ask them if they were looking for funding?

By chance, do you know who the photographer was?
