      start small, don’t give up your job until you get enough photography jobs. Also most events are on weekends so you can keep both up. Start with people you know, and then if you do a good job they will reccomend your services. You don’t need a studio, just a good camera, flash, computer. Then when you get proficient get the lights and an assistant.

      Why don’t you ring round and ask could you work shadow a photographer free of charge to get some ideas of how they set things up. My dad did this when he started and he was able to build his portfolio up. He also went onto other wedding photographers web sites for ideas. He also offered to do friends and families photo’s free of charge. Try to offer something different, not always posed. My dad does what he calls ‘photo journalistic’ he always look to take a photo that is not planned or posed. Have you trIEd to see if any one in your area gives help to people set their own businesses up, ie Princes Trust etc

      The professional wedding photography they often undercut the top wedding photography they both require specialized knowledge of those folks last few angry couples or even their entire career and that wont happen overnight so if you should be planning or longer join the fact that you need.
      An established professionals to deliver the best way is to keep paying the professional wedding photos and know your day job just yet the professional wedding photographers one way is to the other pros in learning and the bills you should be planning or two and failure to move to.

      If you need to ask these kinds of questions, then I highly doubt that you are a wedding photographer, or a good one. These kinds of things you should have figured out before you even think about calling yourself a pro.

      Having an SLR/DSLR does not make one a professional.

      If you don’t know that your shots are good enough and they need improving, then you need to take more classes, apprentice under a real pro, and work harder.
