You have to have training in order to do anything. This is especially true with photography. Owning 3 cameras and 9 lenses does not make you a "professional".

Find a local professional photographer who needs an assistant. Offer to work for free if you have to. Tell him/her up front that you're thinking about a career in photography. If you are fortunate enough to find such a mentor remember this: we all have 2 ears, 2 eyes, and 1 mouth. So you should listen and watch twice as much as you talk. Ask questions after, not during, a job. Yogi Berra once said "You can observe a lot just by watching."

If you can't get training that way then you need to find a photography class and enroll. If there aren't any in your area then check into the correspondence courses offered by the New York Institute of Photography.

Good luck.

There's no such thing as a proper way in photography. And there's no need to take a course to be good at photography. What matters is that you observe other photographers and photographies, and experiment.

You need to know how to handle the camera, and if you go digital you need to know how to manipulate the images. But you can learn all that without any training. If, say, you want to do stock photography, the stock company won't care about your training, only about the quality of your photos. Same with portraits, postcards, and many other kinds of photography.

Join a photography club in your area and learn what other photographers are doing.

And above all, take photos. That's how you learn.

I've said it before and I'll say it again. You dont HAVE to get training to become a professional. To be a doctor, yes. Photographer, no. I and many other pro photographers have had no "training". All my training came from reading, experimentation, more reading and more experimentation. Having said all that, it wouldn't hurt to do a course if you really want to. Makes it easier to be recognised sooner. But be wary or some of the courses avaliable. DO NOT do any form of correspondance course. Only take courses where you have a tutor at hand whenever you need him/her. And find out if the tutor is a photographer. I have come across photography tutors who couldn't tell me what white balance or shutterspeed is.

well , photography is not a book you study... it needs experience, and like others said, you dont need dozens of equipments to become a professional,

any sport needs practice, think of photography like that, practice and search for a good one to train you
