Yes, closely copying another photographer or artist's work is plagarism. However, there is an obvious solution; take your own photographs. Figure out the pose you need and photograph yourself or a friend, visit places and always have your camera with you to snap references. Almost every professional artist does this; hiring models for photosoots or lifedrawing is often a big part of any piece. Research and planning are huge parts of creating art, and the more you plan the better your work.

However, don't just copy what you find on Google Images like Yunomi did, it's not your work, all creatives deserve to be respected.
