Hi,
To start off I'm not well versed in the subject of cameras. I have one its crap and I have one on my phone. But my friend enjoys photography so I was thinking about buying her a nice camera. My question is, is there a certain type or brand of camera that takes human body pictures better than all the rest? She really enjoys taking photos of others and I just want to invest in the correct type of camera.
Thank You.

Basically all name brand cameras can do the job well, it more on what you want to get out of the camera and the models/brand color biases.
If you just need something lightweight and 'idiot proof' then a nice mid range point and shoot nikon or canon and abode CC or Elements software for editing. If you want a camera for a drip into the photographers pool the a canon rebel series SLR or nikon d70 will do nicely. I would get abode photoshop CC 5/6 for editing in a real workflow level. The pro camera are nice but unless you have a need to stick with the pro/am cameras since this is fun and your art will be in the personal side instead of the consumer side.
Printing is a must but unless you need the need to print your own prints stick to lab for the art and a cheap for prints for friends. The inks for a decent 7 ink printer 11in+ are 50-60 a piece. My own setup is 110$ and i sold it for straight lab printing with my workspace dialed in to their numbers.
Megapixels are king. Just you need all of them. If your shooting normal sizes then shelling out a grand on a good SLR camera isn't to much but if the size of the print vs the camera with that power will cost more. My top of the line camera Does the job but if i want to go crazy and print over 17in it's hard. Most of your point and shoots can do over that because of the size of the CMOS and moving part are simple. When you get into the SLR side(removable lens that are stacked) it more different. I won't go into CMOS size vs film relative. Here a link to the point and shoots and to the SLR rigs.

Rebel series are nice and cheap with all the stuff you need to shoot the girl next door if you invest with a 500mm tele 2.8l lens and since it has a aps-c CMOS you get that 1.6 increase humans.
