Professional Photography Props And Backgrounds

How do I go about starting my photography business?

I have the camera and lighting… not much for backgrounds/props or location (living in a small apartment) So I prefer to do outdoor photography.
I guess I’m scared to advertise myself as a professional because I have no professional location…

After a cursory review of your photography, it appears that you may need to review your selection of lenses for an appropriate focal length lense especially for closeups. Also, some of your exposures are not quite on target and in many instances, your exposures are either over or under [the man playing chess/checkers]. You have potential.

Here’s a helpful article on how to set up your photography business:

If you know anyone who has a current Mac computer, you
can use IWeb to create a website showing your recent
photographs. Set up an .mac account [$99 per year] and
publish your IWeb webpage(s).

Acquire from Vistaprint.com a colorful business card
by selecting from their many templates a suitable one
that meets your needs. Make sure to list the URL of
your website along with a telephone answering device.
Do not place your home address or anything personal
such as a cellphone on this businesscard. Then when
you receive the finished business card, pass it around
to various churches, temples and the like to solicit
business.

For digital print processing, find a private
professional film processing lab who can handle all
your client’s print orders. And with a resale license,
you will be qualified for considerable “professional”
discounts on lab fees. A search on the Google and
Yahoo for wholesale photo albums will connect you with
various distributors who, again, you can sign on as a
photography studio and get a dealer’s pricing for any
number of albums, guest books, etc.

Instead of renting a studio, take people pictures at
local parks and beaches and for indoor shots, go to
the client’s residence or office to set up a photo
shooting environment which consists of a set of
lights, reflective screens, background drapery, etc.

Good luck!
