Here is an article about light for Portrait Photography. I have taken three different Studio Photography Classes and each instuctor said something different. I think the lighting you choose is part of the artistic part of the equation. I tell people at the studio that if they like how their shots are turning out then they are doing it "right". I, personally, like the the traditional 3 light system with the main and fill lights at 45 degree angles to the subject and an overhead hair light. You will need to experiment to see what light set up gives you the desired results.

Here is an article by my friend, Valerie Jardin, about finding things in and around your home to photograph. You do not have to spend tons of money in order to find interesting subjects to shoot. I think we miss lots of interesting shots because we are not aware of how beautiful some ordinary things can be.
