I recently did some portraits for an acquaintance of her little girl, and sent them to her electronically (8 photos total), as I'm just starting doing portraits I charged next to no money. Habitually, I watermark any shots I put out there into the ether and always have.
She just sent me a message (three weeks later) asking me for the photos without the watermarks...and I should say, my watermark is just my name in the bottom right corner of a photo, plus I place a 'hidden' watermark of my name somewhere in the picture with the opacity at about 15%.
I was wondering what you all do when it comes to selling portraits, watermarking them, etc. What would you do in this situation?
Thanks
