Years ago, pictures were cheaper, but so was everything else.  Back  them, 
clients sometimes bought many pictures of special or first wins, to share  with 
co-owners, breeders, etc.  Today there is a whole new technology  available to 
the general public.  Many people buy only the minimum order  and then make 
additional copies for extraneous uses.  There is really no  way the 
photographer 
can prevent this.  Trademarks on the picture use to  prevent people from 
going to copy shop and having a copy made.  Today you  can do it at home.  That 
should cause photographers to charge a premium  price for the first picture, 
and 
then perhaps a cut rate for multiple  copies.  
I also buy a lot of boat racing photographs, and those are delivered to us  
at the shows in a 12 X 16 size and cost about $30.00 each.  That large  size, 
obviously is harder to copy, and the photographers have web sites where  you 
can order a disc if you want to make reprints.
