I know well the problem that you are talking about.
I use.htaccess. Means the client will need a user/password to access the files. No big deal.
Just a week ago I was working on a Perl script to write the htaccess files automatically so that I could use the Perl based GUI web interface I wrote to upload images for clients to preview/etc. The idea is to upload the images and define a user/password for the clients via the web. Then just give the client the user/password combination and the URL for them to retrieve the image.
I too am a photographer. Here's my website.
