i did very well with my shaman as using him as a skinner and miner until i made 1g. once you get 1 gold you should dump mining or skinning which ever you prefer and take up tailoring. Once you are able to make heavy woolen glooves dump your gathering skill (mining/skinning) and take up enchanting. Make heavy woolen glooves then disenchant them and sell them. I made 10g in 1 day using this strat with my shamy. It didnt work as well with my other classes.

I've been doing skinning/leatherworking with my shaman, mainly because I thought it would be nice to make armor for myself. However, at the moment the armor I can make isn't nearly as good as the drops I've gotten. Given the opportunity to start over, I would probably go with some money making skills instead and then decide on something else once I had enough to buy some decent equipment.

I also chose skinning/ leatherworking mainly because I never tried it before. I have not had too much luck making money from crafted items. I am waiting to acquire some of the more rare recipes to craft items such as Hide of the Wild which seems to fetch a good price.
The Dragonscale leatherworking specialty allows you to craft some pretty decent mail items later in the game.

Shamans should take Skinning / Leatherworking IMO.
Reason:
At level 40 Shaman get to wear 'mail' armor. At higher level Leatherworking (around 205) you can start making decent 'mail' armor:

Binds when equipped
Hands Mail
146 Armor

+6 Intellect
+6 Spirit
Durability 35 / 35
Requires Level 36
Sells for 34 Silver 77 Copper to vendors
Item Level 41

Wrist Mail
204 Armor

Sells for 40 Silver 13 Copper to vendors
Item Level 42
Use: Quest
Turtle Scale Breastplate (210)
Binds when equipped
Chest Mail
238 Armor

And at higher level leatherworking:

Binds when equipped
Chest Mail

Requires Level 56
Equip: Increases healing done by spells and effects by up to 66.
Sells for 2 Gold 98 Silver 36 Copper to vendors

And someone already said 'Hide of the Wild' because Stamina and Intellect are Shaman's main stats.
Hide of the Wild (300)
Binds when equipped
Back
48 Armor
+8 Stamina
+10 Intellect
Requires Level 57
Equip: Increases healing done by spells and effects by up to 42.

And everyone likes resists:
Chromatic Gauntlets (300)
Binds when equipped
Hands Mail
279 Armor
+5 Holy Resistance
+5 Fire Resistance
+5 Nature Resistance
+5 Frost Resistance
+5 Shadow Resistance
Durability 50 / 50
Requires Level 60

Granted these are only a few of the reasons that I would personally choose to do Skinning /Leatherworking.

skinning is by far the easiest one to lvl. you can almost skin anything in the beging for any shaman class. though leatherworking makes mail sad thing to say for shamans it seems like do i really want that. yes dragonscale is really nice but really hard to get recipes and materials to make something. leatherworkers do make the best early lvl belt and if you can sell it deviate scale belt sells for a crap load of money and profit. ironicly herblism is very anoying and doesnt seem that good for a shaman. but you guys can choose your posin just remeber to take the antidot soon. lol.

as far as skinning goes if you decide to switch to another money making tradeskill skinning can be leveled almost to 300 in a couple of hours depending upon your lvl at the time. I went from 0-200+ in just 3 hours at lvl 28 or so.
