Students Photography

I’m currently a photography student and I want to start working, but I don’t now where to begin? what do I do?

I would prefer part-time for now, would like to work for a book publisher, newspaper, magazine, some good company, etc. or do portraits and weddings. I’ve tried calling wedding/photography studios and had no luck. Honestly, I don’t have much work experience, that’s probably why, but I need to start somewhere, I want to find people who will give me a chance and teach me the trade along the way.

ask friends, family, associates, everyone you know to refer you, let you take pictures of you, anything you can. Your portfolio is important, but you have to have pictures to put in your portfolio. My brother started taking senior pictures of his friends and now is getting ready to graduate from photog school and has already done a wedding and has a job lined up after school….just take pictures, man….and be ready to accept anything!
