You really can't "make" the light good. It is a matter of patience and luck. Many times photographers wait for just the right light which never happens. But sometimes it does, and it may only be good for a minute or two. So it takes planning and perseverance.
As for background, you have to learn a bit about art and composition, then you have to pay attention to detail. One little change might make or break an image, or change a good image into a great one.
You also have to know what the different camera settings are and how they work together to affect your picture. You need to understand what settings to manipulate to mold your camera's capture into your vision. Then practice, practice, practice!

you have to develop and "eye" for good composition and lighting is another factor- it also depends on what your equipment is, are you using a digital or conventional camera? Digital photos can be altered by a good photo shop program in the computer- BUT you have to know what constitutes as a good picture in the first place. Practice taking pics where ever you go, and take your time lining up your shot, get down on the ground and take pictures of things from a bugs eye view- you'd be surprised at the the photos you can get by being creative. Have fun

When taking a picture, a professional photographer considers the lighting of the subject (light at noon vs. sunset, natural light vs indoor lighting), composition (what parts of the subject are in the picture), which colors are in the picture and how they'll blend, and the emotion they want viewers to feel when they see the photo.
My advice to you is to look at photography you like and try to determine what you like about it. Try to think about the things I mentioned above, and take a few pictures of your own. If possible, take a class or two, talk to professionals, and practice. And remember that better cameras tend to take better pictures.
Good luck. :)

well when your doing a photoshoot, then photographers usually have a black sheet in the backround.
if your doing just pictures, then you can always put the flash on.
my aunt is a photographer, and she said that if your taking pictures of people, make sure their head is at an angle (not forward, looking straight). also, anything that is close to the camera will come out bigger than it actually is. for example, if you stick your elbow out then your elbow will be huge.
my aunt said it is usually better to take pictures outside because it's natural light.
hope i helped!

I recommend reading alot of books. My textbook from freshman photography was Photography (9th Edition) by London, Stone and Updike, find it on amazon.com. (actually mine was 4th edition) It is expensive, but it is a great book that discusses everything from aperatures and shutter speeds to film processing and printing. You should also invest in a used fully manual SLR, a pentax k-1000 is s great choice. That would be an excellent start

YOU HAVE TO KNOW "THE KNOW HOW" SO PRACTICE, PRACTICE AND MORE PRACTICE.
ALSO TAKE SOME COURSES.
