         <\/p>\n

          \n
        1. Find Internships Online<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

           <\/p>\n

            \n

             <\/p>\n

              \n
            1. References<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

              Any kind of previous work involves working with employers. If you\u2019re in good touch with any companies you have worked with, try asking for a letter of recommendation. If you have worked with a charity or have volunteered at your church, these are sources that can help add in that special effect that says you know\u00a0what you\u2019re doing as a photographer.<\/p>\n

               <\/p>\n

                \n
