Is this an important commission? Why proceed with inferior material that does not completely inspire you with confidence? Can not the husband be reasoned with to do a reshoot. Can you not tell him that circumstance (ie. hurricanes) will affect your ability to do your best work. Cannot you present a framed study at Christmas? Multiple figure portraits are very difficult to get right in the best of circumstances. I did one with 2 figures, I had to shoot it 3 times before I got what I wanted.
I would not work from this material, but then I may not have the skill or knowledge of you or Ms. Willoughby.

Sharon, you don't hold back telling us what you really think.
Just kidding! I feel, Sharon, you are fully qualified to make this judgement. I also must agree with you that this is a very difficult piece. And Alicia really should do as much planning and get as much reference as she needs if this is going to be a success.
