for photorealistic portraiture from scratch? you will need:
- intro to zbrush by michael pavlovich
- intro to blender/maya - somewhere you can retopo
- facial anatomy and portraiture by scott eaton

either:
- chinkshit course from yiihu (vagrant knight something course) or
- cgma character creation for film/cinematics - you want these just to see workflow for the most part

there are also these free likeness walkthroughs on youtube:

it will take several years to reach an acceptable level
