Wow, I'd be perfect for this type of work.  I have never met a baby I didn't make cry.

I think they're amazing photos. It's not often you see something so provocative. I don't think they'll be scared for life.

Wow.. I must be hardwired wrong. I found the images utterly disgusting. They were overly hyper-realistic and ugly as hell. This has nothing to do with her taking candy from the kids- I couldn't care less. It's the aesthetic of the images that makes me queasy. I'd rather look at Anne Geddes' saccharine work than those things. At least they aren't quite as revolting.

No, you're hardwired correctly. "Utterly disgusting, hyper-realistic and ugly as hell" often = art.

Anne Geddes' work is easy. It's kitsch.
