For those who don't know, I am into photography and trying (at a snails pace it seems) to really learn about it and see how far I can go with it. Not sure if going pro is the ultimate goal, but anyway. Right now I just have a blog that I post photos to, and will probably update this weekend. It's sort of a half-hearted attempt at getting my stuff out there and getting some feedback to gauge if I even have any talent whatsoever. Anyway, this is it:

SO. I've been hunting down photographers and checking out their websites, and although I am light years away from possessing the skill and talent that would necessitate my own website, it's an idea that's brewing in the back of my mind.

I have no idea where this photography thing is going. I do know that I obsessively fantasize about doing photo shoots and getting paid to take pictures would make me pee myself.

Based on that info, how easy would it be to set up a very minimal website? Where do you start? Where do you go? What do you do? What's the cost?

I figure if I start thinking about this now and have a website as a goal for say...6 months to a year from now, it would really help me to buckle down, learn to use my camera properly and really educate myself on photography.

Also, my roommate has some very, very, very minimal idea as to how to do this, so he would be the one setting it up. I would take info you give me and pass it on to him.

If anyone really knows their shit, I would love some help!

So who wants to hold my hand through this?
