I am recently hearing amazing feedback from my family and friends... upon receiving a book from GiGi called 'Starting your Photography business' I realized how serious everyone around me is about any blooming talent I may have. I'm feeling it... but I'm so nervous about it...Its such a competitive market now as quality cameras are becoming more and more inexpensive. Although I do believe that professional photography its really an art... a special eye... and a unique flair...not just about the equipment. (tho having a nice tool is really important too) I really enjoy doing this... but could I actually make money... should I actually start a business doing this?? My style of photography is more journalistic than traditional (I think) ... is there an interest out there from family's to have someone document there children... rather than posed contrived images?? (more internal talking) Can I raise my kids... run a home... and work two businesses??? Am I over thinking?? Where to start? How do I market myself... when do I know to get serious? Hmmm...
ow... isn't this the funniest picture of Lucy ever... she is such a ham!

You take beautiful pictures. I'm sure your business would be successful. Good luck figuring it all out!
There's definitely a market. For the most part, I hate traditional studio portraits. I prefer a more daily life documentation style of photograph, and yours are beautiful!
I say, look at your market, develop a business plan,, get creative, start small, have fun and GO FOR IT.
Never underestimate yourself.
