Need a photo of a girl... not sure how else to title this :)

[buckit]

I have been a member here since last year when I got my first DSLR (lmost exactly 1 year ago!!). i love photography and have learned a LOT mostly due to this forum.

anyway... I recently started a new business and am about to put in a very small 150x60 ad on a website. to gain attention and get people to click on it, I wanted to have a picture of a girl (lets face it, sex sells!).

would anyone out there have any photos they could sell me or point me in a direction of taking my own (I dont have any friends that would work for this)?

anyway... here is a quick idea of what I am looking to accomplish...
http://www.gunenvy.com/images/ad150x60.jpg

The photo that I used was grabbed off of google so im sure there is a copyright violation... which is why I am trying to purchase a photo or take my own. that and the photo I used isnt really what I am looking for.

The site is all gun related and with the words being used (How big is yours?) I am looking for a headshot with the girl looking flirty. if that makes sense.

any help would be great... this site has never let me down before! ;)

Find a model and go take one. That will avoid all legal hassles. Just get her to sign a model release first.

Amen to that...try stock photos.

Thats why I offered to buy something from another photographer on here.

I would take my own but portraits is something I have never even attempted before... let alone try to find a model. wouldnt even know where to start.

Ah ok, i'm sure some people will chime in.

Friends and family. I've had a few female friends pose for me, and I got some pretty good shots. And you can try offering a modelling job to girls on the street, just make it clear that you'll be paying them. You might get lucky enough to find a few models who will work TFCD.

And as for shooting portraits, it's really just about the balance of light. Try getting one of those styrofoam heads they use in hat shops or something like that to practice with. Heck, you can even get one of those heads marketed as girls toys that they practice hair and make up on. The principles are all the same.
