YouTube channels on cinematography are awesome, I devour them specifically for my toy photography but I'd also spend some time learning some artistic concepts like color, composition, and lighting. Being artistically inclined or knowing how to draw helps a lot but be careful not to over estimate your pics.
Look at pic related. That was one of the toy pics I remember being impressed with myself. It's ass, right? At the time I thought it was pretty awesome, so awesome that it'd somehow cancel out the fact that there's a keyboard back there.
Now look how far I've come:

Last but not least don't waste all your money jumping to the latest and greatest kit right away. The camera doesn't make the picture, the photographer does. A shitty photographer with a $14,000 camera kit will still take shitty pictures. Some National Geographic level dude will take a good picture on a disposable camera.
I use a Sony Alpha A200--- FAR from awesome but it gets the job done. I use it it because I frankly don't think I NEED anything fancier. I'll link a non-toy photo I took with a cell phone.
Point is, the tools by themselves won't make a great picture but if you're willing to actually learn and put in the practice you'd be surprised what you end up with.
TL;DR: learn art and learn actual photography
