My approach with them now is simple. I give them the proofs and

Hi y'all...been unsub'ed for a spell - rejoined again, and been in lurk mode for a few weeks.
Great to be back.
Richard, re your portraits, here's a suggestion...why don't you learn how to professionally retouch using Photoshop, and offer your clients that service.
The difference a good retouch can do to a portrait is amazing.
I recently bought Katrin Eismann's book, and I have been so impressed with what she teaches, I can scarcely believe my eyes.
I swear no client will want a straight print when they can have a retouched one.
It's not all that difficult to learn; her book is relatively easy to follow, and once mastered, you have a priceless skill to offer.
You'll need to retain the negs for scanning of course, and may well end up keeping them as a bonus.
Worth a thought?
