In this shoot she’s visiting the movie set of Sitting Pretty in January 1948. I’ve added the pictures to the gallery.

The pictures are taken by Life photographer Loomis Dean. What Marilyn was doing at the set, is still unknown since she wasn’t in the cast. The darkhaired girl is actress Laurette Luez. She wasn’t in the cast either. The two girls seem to be eating chocolates with actor Clifton Webb.

In September 2010 a new photobook will be released, with lots of unseen pictures. Taken by LOOK photographer John Vachon.

This beautiful hardcover collects those unseen photographs for the first time, capturing the sex symbol in intimate, unguarded moments: lounging poolside, riding a ski lift, and snuggling Joe DiMaggio. Includes facsimiles of handwritten letters by Vachon and insightful original essays. 100 duotone photos.

I’ve added new pictures to the gallery, made by Richard C. Miller.

Photographer Richard Miller photographed Marilyn in 1946, when she just started her career. The result is beautiful, with lots of colours and poses. Under the cut you find a video in which Richard Miller talks about Norma Jeane. He said: “She was a very charming, lovely, young lady. She wasn’t smart, not a bright intellectual, but she was nice, pleasant and cute. She posed very well, she was creative about her modeling.”
