From my knowledge of this camera, it's perfect for hobbyist and start ups.
I've got two Nikon's myself and they really don't disappoint! A lot of people will say go for Canon but it's all personal preference.
I'm sure she won't need to but this camera doesn't support 4K Video and doesn't have built in Wi-Fi.
It's got great battery life and for a new comer to SLRs its very simple to use!
I'd always say do your research and read some reviews to make sure it's the right one for you, but I'd go for it if it was after my first SLR.
Somewhat irrelevant, considering that the OP is wanting to shoot stills, and that Canon still appear to be a generation or so away from being able to implement 4K in their SLRs.
MrGringo, for the money, you'll struggle to do much better than this. Do be aware that lighting and background are very important for catalogue shots too, so it's definitely worth investing another £50-£100 or so in some basic studio lights and a quality white sheet to shoot against.

Well my daughter uses a Sony RX100 iii for her vblogs and it's a cracking little camera for that sort of thing.

I've got the Sony RX100 (1) and love it. I recently took 300+ photos at a wedding (mostly family/grandchildren) and posted them on Flickr. Received great comments! Rest assured, it's the camera not me!

1920x1080 at 60fps is maximum for video in mine.
Bluetooth transfer is worse worse than a poke in the eye.

I believe the Sony range is the only one that supports 4K video (which the OP isn't planning on using) so Canon will be no help.

This seems to be a reasonably common price for this camera at the moment - so no heat from me. I bought this camera a week ago for my daughter's birthday. At that time there were some offers around at this price which also included a free Nikon accessory pack (worth around £50). Very also seemed to have the VR lens version at this price (which is typically £20 more), plus the accessory pack, though I think they also wanted £5 for delivery? I tried to order it at Very and the £75 was via a refund to account scheme which I didn't like. Long story short I phoned Jessops and pointed out the Very price and they matched it - i.e. £354 for D3400 with VR lens, accessory pack and including free delivery. Not sure if the Very deal is still on but I'd advise people to shop around and see if they can at least get the Nikon accessory pack or the VR lens version at this price?
Edit - Very still have it with the VR lens at £429 (less £75 - so £354), though no mention now of the accessory pack? I think I would be calling around to see what I could get over the phone...... very.co.uk/nik…400

Argos have it for £449 with £75 off but that includes a vr lens and an accessory pack and if you're with complete savings and go though them you get 10% cash back so another £37 off. Best deal I found plus this camera has a wireless image connector with SnapBridge which works really well

Now that's a deal! LOL. Unfortunately a week ago Argos had no stock of the accessory pack so that may need checking....
