Bear in mind that the photography might end up being more video recording/tiktok/youtube, so worth getting something with a tilty/flippy screen, records video, and has wifi or Bluetooth for easier downloading to the iPad.
Also being easy to use and carry around will be more important than full frame image quality.
Something like this:
Panasonic GX800
12-32 zoom lens, flippy selfie screen, 4K video, wifi.

Also image stabilisation, 4K video, better rear screen, newer operating system and menus.
I have a Lumix DMC-LX3 if a point and shoot is needed. Let me know if you want it.
