Owning a camera doesn't make you a pro photographer mind you. When you charge any fees people expect good results from you.

Practice until you are good enough, starting out as a newbie won't help you to build any reputation in the long run.

by pro i don't mean you have good skills or what, you are a professional once you started charging.

what I am trying to say is, don't think about earning money first when you are new, sharpen your skills until you are confident enough.
