Default How much to charge for a high-resolution photo?

I did a shoot a couple weeks ago, and I have all the photos done. After receiving her photos, she asked how much I would charge for a high-res photo. I have never considered selling my high-res photos, so I am pretty clueless on what to charge. I know the high-res photos are originals, so I don't want to rip myself off, but at the same time, I don't want to overcharge.

Any ideas?

What kind of shoot? What kind of client?

It was more of a fashion-inclined shoot. She wants to get into modeling. It was pretty casual, though - nothing too over the top.

Double the price of the largest print you expect to sell her might be a good start. Hardly a good enough price for a high-end fashion shoot, but I get the idea that's not what you're talking about.

considering you werent going to sell her any prints anyway (right?)
Jims method seems a very reasonable method of estimating.
