Photography can be a pretty easy business to get started.

First you have to come up with a few names for your business. Then go to New Web Domain to check and see what is available. Keep trying until you find one that works. Remember to keep it short so customers can easily remember it. (i.e. nataliescrafts.com, craftsbynatalie.com) or get more creative, but always make sure to keep it short.

Now that you have a domain name you need a site. You can get that by going to:

You are going to need to put some of your photographs on your site. If you haven't done any big projects yet, go out and do some on your own time, and put them on your site. You need some samples of your work.

Get yourself known. Start submitting your site to search engines for photography in your local area. (i.e. photography in Memphis)

Get some business cards printed up and put them in bridal boutiques, party places, etc.

Look for similar sites that you can link to and that would be willing to link to you. Birthday sites, bridal sites, maybe even magazine sites.
