[cc-community] Purchasing Copyrights to an Image

I'm not sure if this is correct subject matter for the cc-community,  
but here goes:

I'm working on a How-To manuscript in the Fiber Arts field.
A friend has taken images of her daughter's lamb, which I'd like to  
purchase the copyrights to one, as well as to another image to close  
the book with.

While they are a farm family, the lamb is a pet and new to their family.
Neither one of us has ever dealt with purchasing the exclusive rights  
to 2 images:
my question deals with figuring out what is a fair price to pay.

Right now they are THRILLED that I'd ask, but reality will set in and  
they'll begin to follow what I'm asking.
What is an average or fair price to pay them for this opportunity?

I know no other small flock owners, much less one that has a sheep  
perfect for my purposes (breed, age. 'look', etc...) but they live  
300 hundred miles away and it's impossible for me to pop over  
occasionally and take a series of images on my own to choose from.

Any help? Or point me in the right direction?
