[QUOTE="JJewell, post: 206426, member: 17140"] What do you do when a client asks you to produce something that is incredibly out of style? This client wants headshots of her 2 kids superimposed (in a "floating blurred circle" as she says) over a shot of the 2 kids together, a la 1970. This was an outdoor session with no photos in front of a solid color background, which makes the superimposed photos look even more like random floating heads than a studio session with a backdrop would have produced. She has also already asked, on her mother-in-law's behalf, so see ALL of the photos I shot that day because "she finds the 'bad' ones characteristically cute." Ack. She is a friend of mine, so I'm trying to be as tactful as possible, but I'm running out of euphemisms for "rude," "inappropriate," "old fashioned," and "not included in the great price I gave you." Help. [/QUOTE]
