Here you go. Made just for the exact requirements you have stated. The Canon Rebel T5i with lens kit.

Later as you grow and learn you will want to upgrade to the Canon 5D Mk III or even the 1D x. Both are several thousand dollars and the best there is in the industry. But for right now the Rebel T5i is a very capable outfit and will serve you well for less than your $1000 dollar budget. 
"... I cannot afford anything towards $1,000 or more), ..." 
This requirement just about limits your choice to a T5i kit, or a T3i. But I recommend you go the T5i route instead of a T3i.
In Canon'ees, the Rebel line is the amateur level. But the T5i is at the top and has many "pro" features.
Next comes their xxD line IE 60D, 70D, etc. It is a prosumer level and quite good at it. The xD series is next.
These cameras are all but professional grade. In fact many "pros" use this line of Canon cameras.
But the flagship, no compromise, no holds barred, is the 1 series, currently the 1Dx.
The problem is as you progress up this hierarchy of offerings the price goes up along too. The 1Dx is nearly $7000 dollars without a lens.
Unless you can go used, it is going to be tough to say under a grand for any of the upper cameras outside the Rebel line.
The T5i will do as much as you want until you are in a position to get a full on pro body.
A word about used, have you considered it? It is possible to get a used 1 D Mk III in great shape for under a $1000 bucks.
They are nearly indestructible. The old saying is, you could beat somebody to death with one and than take the crime scene photos with it. You probably can't get it and a lens for under a grand but close if you could squeeze a few more bucks out.
