Comment: Unfortunately, there doesn't seem to be much biographical information about this photographer in the currently cited sources. The sources are either simple database listings of her work, or is affiliated with the subject, or are simple passing mentions.I don't think the cited sources does not provide sufficient information about [SUBJECT]. As such, this draft feels more like a disjointed collection of facts rather than a comprehensive article. Ca talk to me! 12:23, 11 December 2024 (UTC)
