Having a website being registered with your country tax and business registration, be on google my business then online marketing having a proper booking form, cancel/refund policy, managing booking and clients, building connection locally with school kindergarten music association or any local association. Also being very specialised is in my opinion a must but other might have different view about this... consider not making any money for the first few years being a reality also you will be competing against many others like yourself and sometime against the big production and studio, your pricing will dictate the quality of your client don't be cheap even you are not booking anyone this will only bring the kind of client you don't want to deal with .... think also of your potential client and why they would spend money on a photography session or photo, you have to be able to sell yourself in a extremely subtle way ...

if you are into portrait photography you don't look for it you simply create it with a flash, reflector or diffuser .... are you going to ask you client to wait 3 hours for the right light or ask them to walk hours to find the perfect spot ? for landscape/architecture a very good tripod and some nd/cpl filter is the way to go with some general knowledge of long exposure photography

nikkor 135mm f3.5 Ais 7 years of professional photography as my main lens ( i only have 3 ) the best portrait lens of the Nikon line-up - i have a 28mm f3.5 Ai and a 50mm f1.8 Ai but the 135mm is the one i will never let go ...

on digital my turn around would be maximum one week usually between 3 or 5 day for small session like this ... i shoot on film now my turnover is 14 working days only because i have to send the film abroad for processing to an external lab but one month i would be worried ... when this kind of problem arise between client and photographer i always ask "what does your contract says or what are the rules and regulation of the shooting/photographer"

how to protect your picture simply dont share them.... use a private gallery on a website
