Just as a point of contrast, there are a lot of ways other portrait artists handle this sort of thing. Some are happy to show the reference photo if requested.

Some invite client input/changes and some don't even permit it and take the approach "it's done when I say it's done". (Not sure how well that would go over with clients but I have heard of some artists who handle things that way.)

Some artists show their works-in-progress and some don't let anyone see the portrait until the artist is satisfied with it. (That's what I do.)

Do what works for you, knowing that there is really no one right way to handle it.
