How much should one invest in being a photographer in weddings and fashion?

I am a college student and I don't have a big budget but if I wanted to get gigs for wedddings how much would I have to invest? Do companies pay for your camera if your a professional?

  1. An absolute fortune is the sad answer :( By the time you invest in a high end DSLR, or a large format camera, or even an old F4, and all of the lenses, filters, reflectors, flash guns and meters, you will have shelled out a lot. Then you will need to register your business and get insurance, printing, phone book listings, promotional material etc etc The best way to start out is to get work with an established photographer and that will mean starting out as an assistant. Then, when you have earned enough, you can invest in the gear that you will need.
