I find that most clients, about 95% of them, will either pick a
design out of my books or just leave it up to me to create
something. The clients who do bring designs for me to copy usually
bring me designs that are already henna designs and so they are
usually well suited for being done in henna.

It is true that there are designs that are not well suited to henna.
I had someone ask if I could do the head of Jesus on her son and I
had to turn her down because it would be hard to get something
representational to look right. I don't want to take money for
something I don't feel confident about. That's a judgement call that
each artist has to make on her/his own, depending on their skills and
tools.
