Hey Guys, Thankie you a lot for clicking on my question :]
First of all if you only have rude comments to make don’t say them at all it’s my life and I will choose what I want to do with it. Of course, CAREER WISE! lol so please understand that this is my choice not yours and simply answer the question don’t go all smart on me, telling me this is not a good career or why am I even thinking of this at age 13. I am sure about it :] Thankies!
So here is what is happening, I am 13 years old and I have my career picked out I am choosing photography, And I want to be experienced now at this age so when I am older and can actually have the education I need in photography to be/or almost be an expert in photography! I just bought the book "Digital Portrait Photography" by Steve Sint and I absolutely love it! I also already picked out my camera but I am not sure check it out tell me if it’s good recommend others if you’d like http://www.sonystyle.com/webapp/wcs/stor鈥?
My house has 4 bedrooms and three living rooms but they are all in use is there a way where I can still have my photography studio?? ( I cant make another room I don’t own the house I rent)
So how can I build my photography studio at home?
How do I make it look nice and professional for customers?
What do I need for my studio to be complete? (as in equipment)
How do I stay organized with all of this? (Money,Customers,Appointment, etc.,etc.,etc.)
What are good prices for portraits?
What makes a photographer more money Landscape photography or Portrait photography?
If you sticked with me for the entire time thanks so much I really appreciate it, please take your time to answer my question bellow.
Thankies,Vanessa<3
I never got past line 5.
Not a good way to ask people for anything and certainly not a question that I am inclined to help you on.

i want a camera to take pictures of landscapes, portraits, sports etc. i will be photographing indoors and outdoors. i would like to stay in auto mode and play with the art photography i want long zoom with out the pictures looking noisy i DO NOT want "NOISY" pictures ! i want a tripod , camera case, charger flash (external). and around how much will this be? if you could be detailed with name brand and size that would be really hepful and where to buy it !
thanks
You will first have to decide if you want a point&shoot or Dslr. Dslr gives you the flexibility of many things which are not available on p&s. one of the main ones being interchangeable lens.
since i assume your a beginner. I would say, go for a nikon D5100. it has a ISO of 12800 and in burst mode, it can go upto around 32000. which is very very good. and you can get with some zoom lens to go with it. google the one that’ll suit your budget. you have lens that go upto around $1000 and more. The camera with the kit lens (18-55mm) will cost you about $700 perhaps ? and decent tripod would be around $40-$50. I got my hama star-62 for $50. Maybe you can get it cheaper too.
All the very best 
& remember, in the end, its all about the person behind the camera.

Read.
Buy books.
Take classes.
Take art classes.
Analyse the great masterpieces by master photographers.
Learn about compostions.
Learn about equipment.
Learn to develop in the darkroom.
Learn photoshop.
Follow photography awards and try to understand why this particular photographer wins and how he did the work.
Practice, practice, practice.
Oh I think I forgot just follow your instinct and be original.

The assignment calls for the use of (dramatic) lighting, texture, composition, and/or a carefully chosen setting to add to the picture.
Last year I gave this assignment to my class. Some used straight forward, "set the self-timer and run and get in front of the camera" shots .. some were quite funny.
Others used a long cable release or remote control which were much more traditional in concept.
Others used very long exposures, in a darkened room and used a pen light to paint themselves with light
Of course there is the choice different focal length lenses, film type (or ISO setting on the sensor) and lighting techniques in the mix.
Mainly have fun and shoot a lot of images .. maybe one roll and then using your contact prints, edit them with your instructor, make adjustments and re-shoot a second roll. This should give you a good selection for your classes critique.
