Whatever business it is, not just in photography, the first thing to consider is capital. That will serve as the source of everything you need to build your photography studio, all will follow when you have settled your capital.

Lights – One light and a reflector are more than enough to start. ...

There are a lot of things to do, starting with the area. It is good to site the shop at business district area were the demand will be high although the cost of renting a shop will also be high, the next is space, lighting, stage and camera equipments. $1000 for a start will do.
 
Setting up your own photography studio is a significant investment. If you are at the stage where your business defines your brand personality, then this article is for you. It explains how to set up your own photography studio, which will then give you complete control of your photography work process. Having a studio of your own frees up your imagination from standard settings and lets you stand out from the competition. Deciding where to build your studio depends upon your client list. If you are a portrait photographer, whose clientele consists of local families, then a local place would suffice.
 
You should be able to put a nice and good looking stand,
You should have modern camera set, you must have a nice washing machine and can deliver within seconds, you must have a good interpersonal relationship because is works mostly in businesses like this.
 
You already know that the main thing is capital, since it is a business where the necessary implements are expensive. On the other hand, you must have knowledge of the target audience to carry out the marketing work both online and offline.
 
I believe you are good already in photography before trying to invest in photography business, because the business is not a business you will just jump into because you have little idea or experience, if you must do that business, you must be good, extraordinary good.
 
What you have to do before everything is being a photographer or designer, you can create one to rent it for some expert, but the profit will not be the same and you will not feel so comfortable like when you are doing everything yourself
 
Camera trippd. Few camera accessories are as versatile and necessary as a tripod. Remote Shutter Release. Prime Lens. Photography Lighting Equipment. SD Memory Cards. Camera Cleaning Kit. Camera Strap. Camera Bag.
 
In setting up a photography studio. One first of all need a good office. Secondly, different backgrounds for nice shots. A good camera. A good radiator. Also light stand. A good laptop for editing. Etc
 
Am thinking of starting up my photography studio and I know it will cost me some logistics and capital. Please what are the things I need to put in place to make my studio stand out and to establish it
You need a room, to be referred to as the study. Then a very high definition camera and either equipment necessary to give a perfect shot. Also, be reminded that most people nowadays now prefer to take pictures with their phones, so you have to step up your game to be beyond that level.
 
Setting up backgrounds on a plain wall can help you take great portraits in your own living room.
A bedroom with big windows can be used as a studio for portraits.
Use flash bouncing off the ceiling to light portraits in your living room or in the space you want for your at home studio.
 
Yes, the number thing is your capital before any other thing, you need to be sure of the capital involved before engaging yourself in it, if you have the capital that can cover all the expenses involved, then you can think of ways to come out ahead of your competitors.

Of course it will cost you some money to have a start up. Buying modern equipment will be needed in order to start a standard photography studio. You'd also need an experienced photographer that you can trust and bank on. Try to know of those in the business around your location. Do this before starting. Lastly, I would advice you to get good advertising platform in order to get known in the business.

It is true that photography is now practised by many this days but the ability to stand out from the crowd depends on the kind of branding and face-lifting you are giving to your own. You will need to get a very good camera for example Nikkon or any other professional camera, get a light box, you will also need a computer for editing on adobe photoshop, you will need studio lights and so on.
 
When you want to start a photography business you have to first of all get a location after the location then you get your materials which is your camera and then get workers one or two for a start, you must note that good location is very important for every business
 
Firstly, you need camera then you consider other options like space, lightning, lens, grip, stand etc all these equipment is to make your business standard, you should try to visit a photographer and his shop or studio to know what you will like to see in your own shop.
 
Photography can be very lucrative if you are very very good in it. I have a friend who is into photography business, he covers a lot of events like wedding, birthday parties, graduation ceremonies and so many of them. First of all you might have learnt the skill of photography then what you need again is enough capital to start in order to buy the necessary things then you're good to go.
 
Your poll is incomplete and not helpful. A photography business needs the following - equipment, place of business, staff, prospective customers. Of course, your business should have a license so you can offer your service to big clients like hotels and events organizers. The staff should be skilled with the work, not only with the camera but also with the editing of the video and photos. The equipment should be complete with the types of lights.
 
The first piece of equipment you need to start a photography business is a good camera. There are plenty of options out there to consider.
You might also find it necessary to rent or purchase some studio space for your photography business, especially if you plan on having clients travel to you for photos.
