Thats an impossible question for anyone else to answer effectively..

We dont know if you use stock furniture, the sizes of the rooms, what the brief is, how fast you work, what your standard of work is, how the rooms are kitted out, the cost in your country may vary widely to other regions......

You need to have a look at the amount of work, and decide how long it will take you from start to finish. Then think of an amount of money you could charge per hour... what would you be happy with.. Then total it up and see how it looks.

Then come back here and see what you are charging per image.. Thats probably a better way to get an idea.. If you are charging around £300 - £600 for 1 internal shot (UK pounds) then maybe you are in the right area if its much more or much less, then perhaps thats a little cheap / pricey.

Obviously that is based on UK prices and is a very rough estimate of cost, based on the fact you have a run of images to work on.
