I decided to take my hobby to more of a job.This summer I will be surrounded by my family , who have little children! So I was wondering for someone who doesn't have that much knowledge on being a pro/ freelance photographer.

How can I find a client list.

I have a Portfolio made up and all, but all i'm really looking for is like small children's boutiques that need a children's fashion photographer. I have my own models and such, but I just need to find the client! I have blogs and such set up for my photography, and I do some work with friends and family.

I live in a small town in MI so I feel like i'm kind of limited!

Thanks everyone
 
"So I was wondering for someone who doesn't have that much knowledge on being a pro/ freelance photographer."

Then you are not ready to build a client list. You need more experience - potentially mentor/apprentice for an established professional. Find out how it all works, not only photographically, but in the business side.

There is a lot more to professional photography than just taking pictures of people.

Get a book from the libtrary/Amazon called "How to start a home based photography business", talk with your local small business association and anything else that D L suggested.
