Practice/Portfolio Images

Hey everyone I've been around here for a while and have managed to learn quiet a bit from everyone so first off I want to say thank you all for such an awesome community. I have for sometime been working with a photographer who does most of her own retouch work only getting bits and pieces that need the most work. I am looking to branch out and would like to start freelancing. Unfortunately all of the images I have are hers other than a few I have picked up here. Most of what I have I am not allowed to post before and afters of. Well to make a long story short I was wondering if anyone would be willing to shoot a few photos my way that I could use for building an online portfolio or point me in the direction of some nice free images that I can use without breaking any laws. I hate to say free but I have 0 money to get going with so even a low cost site really wouldn't help when I say 0 i mean 0 lol. I have been working with one photographer for 6 months now and might have made $200. Anyway I'm rambling any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks so much for that link! I've also been having trouble finding quality images to practice on that are okay to put on a portfolio website.
