I've just started as I've had this camera for about three months now. I really like the quality of it. I may go with a Nikon camera in the future.

Darn,okay. I thought I uploaded them correctly on here. How do you properly add pics on here? Sorry for asking such a silly question.
I just use tinypics and copy the link
You guys have any tips for a beginner?
start shooting and keep shooting. It takes time to master your craft

I know it might sound crazy, but Pinterest has tons of tutorials for learning to use your camera.

Do you have a camera yet?
No, I don't have one yet I'm looking for one now. I have a 300 dollar budget for one.

Also thank you ill check pinterest out.

Yes, depends on what I'm shooting: Weddings, potrait, and product shots are paid. Anything else is my own interest. You will have to figure out what you want to shoot that will pay you, then do some checking around and see what other photographers in your area are charging for those services and adjust accordingly. The main thing is going to be hustling, by that I mean, checking online (Craigslist, FB, job websites) for who needs what shot, going after those jobs you can do, networking to get your name and services out. Facebook has a community for damn near everything. Once you get started client referrals can help greatly. Get an online portfolio started for your work, a website or flicker or FB page, something that you can direct people to so they know what type of work you do. Doing this plus keep improving your skills you should be able to find some paid work. I keep a website, FB business page, and IG, all for networking.
