I'll be at the V&A tomorrow from about 10am where there is a Lee Miller exhibition - you're welcome to join me, but I think you are probably in the US though your location just says 'around'.
If that is the case here is a web site http://www.leemiller.co.uk/index.html
If you are in or around London send me an e mail.

We too will go to sea in a Sieve,---
To the hills of the Chankly Bore!'
Far and few, far and few, Are the lands where the Jumblies
live;
Their heads are green, and their hands are blue, And they went to
sea in a Sieve.

Detective work reveals a left hand drive on his avatar... so not in the UK. That or he is a passenger on the wrong side of the road ;)
Good luck with the project - look forward to the results.

LOL at Rich...You sleuth you. :^D
On the other hand, he could be a passenger. I know I did all the driving whilst I was in the UK...So sometimes men don't do all the driving. ;^)
Wish I could join you, Richard. That promises to be a great exhibition. :^)
Edit: Oops you kinda said that didn't you....Don't mind me, I'm having an off day, lol.

Left hand side? Humm...will think about that one. We may be all right after all, even if left handed. I will also check out the websites, whilst my mind wanders from the left to the right of the road. Thanks for the links.
scoleman, best wishes in this project..and in finding the right model. Most of mine have fuzzy faces and look like house cats, since that is what they are. TomD'Art.
Awwwwwwwwww never mind Marlene I'll buy you lunch at the NPG (portrait gallery) when you are in London. Superb collection and great lunches too 
I bet someone, somewhere, has the perfect camera, just languishing around in a wardrobe, for taking really authentic looking 1940's style portraits.

So, the project is to emulate 1940’s – 1950’s portraits. Does anyone here know of a good site for reference? And would anyone have their own examples? Poses, lighting, camera settings, ect. would be great.
