How do you become a Fashion/Model Photographer??

Moderators: Please move to a different section of the forum if you feel its in the wrong 'thread'.


I'm stuck in a dead-end job and I'm wanting to use my photography for a job. I've been considering what subject I would like to do and I have thought very much about looking into fashion or even model photography.
The only trouble is that I don't know how to get involved/to start off in this kind of area of photography.

I know that I would need a portfolio of what I can do and I was wondering if I should write something on Facebook that I'm looking to take photos of people as I'm wanting to become a fashion/model photographer.
Does anyone thing this would be a good idea? (But of course it does mean that everyone at work will know what I want to do because they're nosy g*ts, and I would rather keep it a secret).

I should really go on a course but I don't know what to do. I would like one-to-one tuition or to work in a small group of people.

I'll be only using my 18-55mm kit lens as I can't afford to buy anything else at the moment.

Can anyone point me in the right direction? I'm from Keighley, West Yorkshire.


If its difficult to get in then I might as well look in to landscape photography since its what I do anyway and I'll be buying a wide-angle lens when I can afford it
