My best guess is she wants to see proof that she is sexy still. That she is a woman. Sometimes however much your loving husband tells you that, it is hard to believe, and you also think maybe they are telling you that just because they want sex.
I know at times when my H came onto me I have told him, when he has been paying me compliments, that I didn't believe him and that as far as I was concerned at that particular time he would have found the back end of a camel attractive!!!! I know it doesn't make sense - but sometimes we women just don't see ourselves the way you do.
I really think the photo's are to prove to her that even though her ability to create life may be fading she still is an attractive woman and she wants to see that. In her mind she probably thinks you remember her as she was when you first met - not as she is now. The fact that she came back and hugged you shows that she cares; I don't believe she means to hurt you - I really think she is a lost soul at this moment. her body is frightening and confusing her.
Many women deny the menopause - they really don't want to know that it is happening. Sleepless nights are a dead give away along with the hot flushes etc.
Hang in there.
