First Time Buyer

Hi all, just started recently to think about buying my first property.
I don't really mind as too how large it is, but just wanna stop paying
rent (which is just dead money).

I and my newly wed wife. Both 25yrs, full time working, with good
credit, living and seeking a place in London (up to say zone 5 max),
we have a few thousands of pounds for a deposit.

The problem I might see here is that our combined annual income is
only £30,000. Would like to get say a studio or 1 bed flat. But I
think it might be hard to get a mortgage to stretch that far.

My question now is, can anyone give me some advise on what I can do?
How do I find does shared ownership schemes? Is this the right
direction?

Any advice would be greatly received.

Kind regards and many thanks,

.
