I'm in a Graphic Design class, working with Illustrator. For our final project we need to do a portrait. Doesn't matter of whom. Do any of you know of any websites that would have high resolution portrait shots of models/photo shoot style photos of people in either fashion or futuristic/sci-fi get-ups? Attire doesn't really matter as long as it's eye catchy. Male or female. Doesn't matter.

If this is just for a class you could probably search around on Flickr or Picasa and just grab a random photo from someone's collection. So long as you are not going to display it publicly, or make $$ off of it there should be no harm in it.

"We need to do a portrait" and you want to get it off a website? uh-oh.

It does not have to be an original. It's not an art class, it's a graphic design class. We can use reference photos. As for publicly displaying it, if it's good enough, it might end up in the school's gallery.

You can try Corbis, Getty Images, or go search BoingBoing - I know they've had some links to a lot of future/sci fi illustrators and artists. Or hit Google.
