I would really like to become a Portrait Photographer but don't know where to start. I have absolutely no training but I think I have a good eye and alot of good ideas. I have tried to find a photography school in my area (Fort Worth, TX) but have had no luck. Any advice?

By the way, I am Married and settled I cannot afford to pack up and move away for school. I'd hoped to find something in this area.

Check into the New York Institute of Photography (nyip.com). They offer correspondence courses and have been in business since 1910 so they're reputable.

As someone already spoke of, you do not favor ANY education to change right into a specialist photographer. images is one among those extraordinary professions wherein you are able to excel and do o.k. with none skills by any skill. images is more desirable about the outcomes you get than the skills you carry. i do not favor to ever discourage everyone from reading images, yet all i visit claim is that I make a aspect living from my images and that i carry no degree. I favor i could take it to an total time interest, notwithstanding the way the market is as we talk and the fierce competition, it should not be achieveable. you want my suggestion?. study and earnings a level in something more desirable than images. bypass for something like drugs operating example. you've a sturdy qualification that guarantees you a sturdy interest, earning a large number of money and also you are able to save images as a interest. i wager that did sound somewhat discouraging.. yet i'm being straightforward with you.. A images degree skill not something until eventually you want to bypass into preparation. Plus you'd be leaving uni with about £20,000 of debt and little or no paintings in a suffering market. Use your head and save images as a interest or somewhat aspect earner (like me). . .

I'd recommend you take some adult ed classes. I've learned one needs to learn the "rules" -- if nothing else, than to break them.
Brooks Institute in Santa Barbara, CA is among the best photography schools.
