# Photo suggestions — MATCHED against steve-personal Drive

> **Drive auth status:** ✅ Authenticated as `steveabramsdesigns@gmail.com` (steve-personal). Searched April 25, 2026.
>
> **Headline finding:** Steve's personal Drive holds **very few directly Student-Debt-Crisis-Center photos.** Most photos in the Drive are personal, design-portfolio (wallpaper renders), or San Diego Comic-Con (the local viewer at `~/Projects/sdcc-images` on port 9821 is for *Comic-Con*, not Student Debt Crisis Center). The actual SDCC nonprofit's photo library most likely lives on the org's Google Workspace Drive (`info@studentdebtcrisis.org` or `sabrina@studentdebtcrisis.org`), not Steve's personal account.
>
> **Recommendation:** request access to the SDCC org Drive before final design. Until then, the matches below are the best candidates from steve-personal, plus explicit "no match — needs new photography" notes for slots where personal Drive can't fill the gap.

## ✅ Matches found in steve-personal Drive

### Natalia Abrams — President & Founder (headshots)

These are 2010 SDCC-era headshots of Natalia Abrams. They are real and usable, but **16 years old** — recommend a new headshot session before going live.

Folder `19MOOq-M-vL4IC4mLF4GFRe6zORL7KLmP` contains a recent (Aug 2025) Nikon DSC shoot — `DSC_2483.JPG` through `DSC_2487.JPG` plus matching `.NEF` raw files. **Subject matter not yet confirmed** — could be SDCC event, could be unrelated. Worth a manual review before assigning to slots.

## ⚠️ False-positive warnings (DO NOT USE)

These came up in keyword searches but are **NOT** Student Debt Crisis Center assets:

- **`SDCC_Background.png` / `.psd` / `SDCC_Background2.png`** in the "Graphics" folder — these are **San Diego Comic-Con** brand backgrounds, NOT Student Debt Crisis Center.
- **`sas-natalia-*.jpg/psd`** files (multiple, dated 2008) — these are **Steve's personal photos** with someone named Natalia (not Natalia Abrams the SDCC founder).
- **`DylanNataliaSteve*.JPG`** — personal photos, not SDCC content.
- **`Natalia bday.jpg`** (Oct 2024) — personal birthday photo.
- One spam-style filename in the May/protest search (excluded from this doc by name).

## Suggested next steps for Steve

1. **Request the SDCC org Drive shared link** from Sabrina Calazans (ED). Re-run the matching against the org Drive — that is where the actual borrower portraits, summit photos, team headshots, and rally images will be.
2. **Schedule a 2026 team headshot session** — current Natalia photos are 16 years old; Sabrina, Sabrina Cereceres, and Ángel have no photos in steve-personal at all.
3. **Build a small "consented portraits" Drive folder** of borrowers from the 82,475 stories who have explicitly consented to photo use. Tag with story ID. This is SDCC's most valuable visual asset and currently does not exist as a structured library.
4. **For interim production**, use the 2010 Natalia-Abrams headshots + the `CollegeStudentOccupyColleges.JPG` for Free the Degree, and use the Tate-Esq numbered-card visual pattern (which doesn't require photos) for Calculators / Book-a-Call cards.
