they already have the photos and the grid? does that mean you're working on existing master pages, or they just know how they want it organized, and you still have to design it...? are the font styles established? are the photos prepared for print output or are you going to need to retouch/color correct them all?
get the full details, estimate the hours, then add 25% of those hours on top of the total because you will almost definitely go over – especially if you haven't done this sort of project before...

sounds like you have to mesh this estimate with the sort of money they're used to paying you for smaller projects, so maybe you can make it up with the printing
