Shaun.....you need to buy a camera first ;D
I have 0.5 mp Kodak Instamatic for sale if your interested.
Failing that look at other websites and if you see pictures
you like ask the website owner if you can copy and paste
them to your own.
I've never been told no yet.

Shaun... bite the bullet and get your self a good compact camera!
I did once work for Panasonic and their cameras were really good, invest in a tripod and don't rely on artificial light too much... i find opening the curtains and letting as much light in the room is best...
Set your camera on a tripod and turn off the flash, try a slower shutter speed but make sure the camera is perfectly still !

Nothing worse than seeing other peoples work on your own website !

I agree with Russ doing your own pics is the way to go it gives you more credibility .and when u speak to people about the website you feel better knowing they are all yours . But I would say if your just starting up then use what you can but ask first , then put your own on as you build up a portfolio I've got at least a hundred or so and Russ,s videos have spurred me on to making my own
