<p>If you have poor social skills, I'll be honest, it might not be a good profession for you. This is a people profession. You really have to have great self-esteem and social wisdom, photography is only half of the job. If you want to learn social skills, I recommend first to get a job working with people, such as a salesman. But get the social skills first, before becoming self - employed. If you muck up the waters in your community now, you might not ever be able to recover from it. Make your mistakes and learning in another job, and once you think you have the confidence, then hang out your shingle as a wedding photographer. I disagree with Dave on getting a front person. As a photographer, you, not someone else, but you, you really have to have people skills, especially during the formals. </p>
