Hello Cherie, Posted December 28, 2007 |
I opened a new photography business this month after a five-year hiatus after my husband passed away. He and I had a photography business, so I am not new to photography -- just new at making the decisions without him.

Start A Photography Business - The What and The How To
Knowing how to successfully start a photography business is simple. But, how to start a photography business is only simple is you "know" how and where to find what you don't know, right?
Start A Photography Business - Keeping Things Simple
Start a photography business without guessing what next to do.
Let me suggest a very simple, yet, extremely important tip on how to start a photography business: Don't be the "do-it-all" photographer. Start where you are with the equipment that you have. If you don't have the equipment to confidently photograph weddings - don't take wedding photography jobs. If you don't have a studio - don't offer to do studio photography.
One of the first steps in starting a photography business successfully is to realize that regardless of your photography experience, focusing on quality and consistently delivering professional service is key.
Keep in mind that there is a difference between amateur photographers and professional photographers. The 'real' difference is how you declare with the IRS! Most photographers consider themselves amateur. Many charge for their services to make a few bucks to pay for their photography passion. Many are part-time professionals.
Still, other photographers are full-time professional photographers. Taking pictures because you enjoy taking pictures is one thing. Taking pictures because you have bills to pay is something else, entirely!
Yes, you can start a photography business on a part-time basis!
