Anyone can pick up a camera now a days and call themselves a photographer [I hate that]. I believe taking courses in order to better know the art of photography is always best.

First you need to decide what type of photography your going to be into; such as news, advertising or fine-art photography.

Practice, practice, practice!

Develop a profolio

Get a job to work as a photographer's assistant.

Attend workshops and seminars to remain up-to-date on technical advances in photography.

And the most obvious of all, get a camera.

Get your grade 12!

The best thing right now is to get that diploma or GED, it'll make your life a lot better by just having that piece of paper.

You can go to adult learning centers or night classes. Sometimes online schools aren't accredited- you really need to be weary of these people that offer GEDs.

You live in North Carolina? I believe they have the resources to help you get a GED. Some ALC have a on site daycare.

I don't want to be a nag but you really need it hollie!
