I love photography and I REALLY love digital photography and using Photoshop. I'm good with animals and people and would love to start a part-time portrait business focusing on animals and their human pets. I'm thinking that I would need to take some professional level classes and maybe a small business accounting class and learn more about marketing. I'm not planning to earn a lot of money with this.

My start up costs would be a good digital SLR, and some classes, business cards, advertising. And a web site. And, oh yeah, maybe a Mac laptop. This is adding up $$$. What else?

Is anyone a professional photographer? What else do I need to consider? What are the difficulties that I might encounter as a beginner?
