Speaking as one of our local (to this board) kiltmakers. I try to get pics of all the kilts I make. When time permits, I also try to take the kilt in to work and get a quick pic on one of the dress forms to hold me over.

However, out of the 200+ tartans I have to offer, I have only made a small fraction of those into kilts for customers. It would be extremely expensive to just crank out kilts for the sake of pictures.
