Now Then Photography
What’s a good way to start my career in photography?
I’m 17 years old and I love photography. I’ll be graduating next year and I hope to take a class for it in college, but what could I be doing from now to then that might help me later on, or possibly give me a headstart on my future in photography? thanks for your answers!

It all depends on what area of photography you want to get into.
Getting started in wedding and portraits is totally different than fashion or sports or travel
Whatever area you want to get into you need to learn as much about it (both from photography and business marketing) as you can.
You will need to start getting together your “book” now so that you can hit the ground running.
Without knowing what area you are looking to enter it is difficult to give specific information.
