Associations may be a good avenue to explore. These organizations will address many of the thoughts, questions and concerns you'll inevitably have as well as many you haven't anticipated yet. See the source box for some relevant links.

Research, research, research 鈥?this cannot be stressed enough. Read as much as you can about the industry. Here are some book titles that are relevant:

* Photographers Market Guide to Building Your Photography Business: Everything you need to know to run a successful photography business by Vik Orenstein

you don't need a license, however you do need to register you business with a few local and federal agencies. Also, you need lighing, camera and accesseries, backgrounds, props, and things to pose people on. You also need space to do this in, as well as a consultation space. You need legal documents such as agreements and model releases. You also need to advertise, and a company to work with to reproduce your work
Well, you need to work up to a studio... Start with a nice camera first, and work for peanuts to get the experience. Find some model's or people willing to have their event photographed. As you make money, you buy more things.
