Market for professional before/after portraits?

I am wondering if there could be a market for before and after portraits of bariatric patients.
I know overweight people generally do not like their photos taken. However, having been a former patient, I might be able to find a niche market for my area as future patients might be more comfortable with a former patient who could definitely see their future selves
I would take photographs at local "outdoor scenes" so that they can be followed up at the same place in the future by anyone. Photography is more of a professional hobby for me, but I have never got into the "portrait" arena. This might be a fun venture.
I have never seen a good before, or even good after pictures. I think the before pictures are all just horrible. Even in doctors offices, they are so bad, my center stopped taking posting them on walls. I would even hang out with them for some activities for candids, because many patients change what and how they do things afterwards. So instead of having horrible pictures to show people, they'll have something; nice.
