Also, part of the process of working with clients involves going into every meeting projecting a feeling of confidence about your process or the reference you are recommending.
I go through all my photos before showing any of them to the client and pick the one photo or the the very best combination of photos and say "THIS one is my favorite, and here's why." I find there's less dithering around if I'm conveying confidence about what will work and what won't. Maybe you've already done that. I don't know, since I wasn't there.
I personally really like the photo of the boy with his foot up ..."and here's why: " I like the more relaxed pose it gives his upper body, instead of the squared-off look he has with both feet down. I think it's a very natural and cute pose that kids often take, with one foot up.
It's a slippery slope an artist get get onto, dithering around when the client says,"try this" and "show me what that would look like". Pick your favorite and convince her why it's the best. You're the expert.
