Okay, which one of you wise guys came up with the idea of offering a free service to photograph dead babies in order to “help” with the “healing process”. A likely story. Sickos.
Thanks to Ingrid for the link.

Somebody please tell me: why is it considered the height of tackiness to take pictures of a person in their coffin, but it’s “oooh, so sweet and sad! So healing!” to take a picture of a stillbirth as a keepsake? Gag. As if people passing around pics of their live babies/grandbabies wasn’t tiresome enough!
Heh heh, this reminds me, talking about pictures of the dead: when my mom was in high school, her friend Karen’s grandfather died, and Karen brought pa pic of the old gent in his coffin to school. Mom was so startled and embarrassed on being shown this pic that she blurted out the tag line for a denture-cream commercial: “Smile, Fred!”
Needless to say, Karen didn’t find it too funny.
@Aimee When my mother was dying, I stopped taking pictures of her about 6 months before the end because I didn’t want to remember her that way. But I guess I understand it with a dead baby, after all, you didn’t have the chance to take a picture of them earlier (except those indecipherable smudges that they call “ultrasound pictures” that expectant mothers love to show off).
