How much would a beginner to average photographer sell a set of photos (framed)

Nice, but should try to watch "Totem poling" the heads (ie. one head exactly vertical to the other one) like in the first family portrait. The tip about the avoiding the horizontal placement of the eyes was helpful. Thanx
