Re: photo question

When clients ask me to photograph their gardens, I give them both high and low resolution images on a disk (low so they can email to friends, high so they can print out high quality images), and I put a nice label with a photo from the collection I'm giving them that I make  with a very inexpensive label-making program purchased at Staples (on the label, include a title such as name of garden, date photos were taken, and that the photos are by you).  If they want you to give them prints, do so through one of the sites such as Shutterfly.com and charge them a percentage premium for your trouble.
