Judywell it depends on the Photography, but alot of photographers live by the rule of three. the rule of three tells you what you need for a good picture. the rule of three includes 1. a camera best suited for your type of photography as well as the propper lenses.
2. the propper equipment to capture a picture (for studios and modeling mostly).
3. a good eye for the picture you want to take.
but for more serious photographers who would like to give there photo's away there is an extra rule.
4. the propper forums and documents for the picture. (If your going to take a picture of a building or of people or of national land marks and stuff like that and sell it then you need the right papers otherwise the next picture you take will be of you losing money).
It depends on the type of photographer you want to be. If you just want to take pictures for fun there is no formal training needed. However, if you want to become a professional you can go to school for photography just make sure you have good patience and either a steady hand or a tripod.
Some qualifications are:
-An applicant for certification must possess a high ethical and professional standing.
-An applicant for certification must be primarily employed in the field of Forensic Science whose duties include forensic photography.

Examples of qualified training may include college photography, or digital imaging courses, IAI conference classes or workshops, training in photography, image analysis and/or digital imaging through the FBI, state and local academies, or other forensic imaging workshops.
-All applicants must submit two letters of endorsement, one of which must be from an individual actively working in the area of photography and/or digital imaging. One of which must be from the individual's immediate supervisor. These should be addressed to the Secretary of the Certification Board.
One qualification is to love photography and to understand what makes a good picture. Some people think anyone with a smartphone can be a photographer, but this is not entirely true. A good photojournalist develops an understanding of news, and knows how to work with the reporters to take the right pictures, in order to enhance the story. These days, many photojournalists get their start on a college newspaper, which provides them with valuable experience.
College photojournalists cover campus events, sports, guest speakers, or whatever else is needed to give a visual component to a particular story. They also take courses in photography, journalism, visual art and design, etc. There are a number of good schools with these courses, and the college newspaper (or magazine, or TV station) will give you the opportunity to apply what you have learned. Having gotten that experience, you can then seek out internships at newspapers or TV stations, and further perfect your skills.
