Fashion photography as a major/career?


besides thinking about fashion journalism I've also been thinking about fashion photography.
because I love both so much and they are important parts of my life
but I just dont know!
because for one thing, will I go into the career and the jobs will be limited? so is it practical or is there lots of unemployment?
does it take a long time to work your way up in the fashion world as a photographer and what sorts of jobs would I even start out doing?
please answer if you have first hand experiences and that sort of thing only.

I'm in school for photography now and there are a few fashion photographers in school with me. It is definitely a VERY competitive market, and takes a lot of work but the pay-off is good. You would start out as an assistant to a fashion photographer and that would get you into the field. You would learn a ton, and assisting is something you can do while you're in school. From there you will start photographing your own models and building a portfolio. Your portfolio will be your lifeline- clients will rely on it.
