Will you provide the untouched images to a client? Personally I like the idea of just handing over the touched up ones that impress.
Care to leave your thoughts?

A client or customer should be paying for the final product, which would be comparable to your work that they've seen on your website or wherever you display your photos. They should have been able to see your style so they'd know what to expect. So do you know what exactly is their concern that they want originals and edited versions?
Usually if a photographer for some reason sells the original files it's at a high cost (like sending an armored truck full of cash to your front door! lol jk of course) but seriously that's not done at the typical cost for a photo session and/or prints.

Yes they are portraits of their engagement, honestly I didn't bother to ask. I kind of assumed either that or they were going to have someone else do the editing.
