That's a loaded question. First of all, get Mod Organizer, and follow any tutorial that is built into it, as well as Youtube tutorials; Mod Organizer will save you from the frustration that many experience. Some may say that MO is for more experienced users, but I say start there, and just do the work to learn how to use it, and ask for help anytime you run into dead ends (make sure to put your questions in the proper forum).

 

Among the mod types that people use to make awesome screenshots are body mods, texture mods, weapon and armor mods, and ENB presets (ENB presets are confusing to install for beginners, and they require computers that are in good condition).

 

Among the tools that you will need are TES5edit, FNIS, SKSE, possibly Wrye Bash.

 

The best thing to do is gather these tools, along with a few mods, install them, look them over, and decide what questions you would like to ask.

 

A warning about ENB presets: they are graphically intensive, and they require advanced hardware in terms of memory and videocards.

 

Have fun.
