“Look at them, just babies." Nancy Sutton, a professional school portrait photographer, has taken photos of every child killed at Robb Elementary School on Tuesday, along with the two teachers. In fact she has taken pictures of virtually every student who has attended classes at Uvalde Consolidated Independent School District for the past 20 years. Click after click after click, Sutton, 59, and her husband and their Nikon cameras captured the smiles, the awkwardness, the growth from child to teen to adult. They’ve fixed hair and straightened ties and offered reassurances year after year, class after class. "You look so pretty," the Suttons have told generations of kids. "You’re so handsome, I like your shirt." Since the shooting at the elementary school, the Suttons' pictures of the dead have been published on newspaper front pages and on TV, and rocketed around the world via social media, providing a lens to the country's worst mass shootings and the means by which the world could put faces to the names of the dead.
