Digital media (such as photography & video) is and has been a fast growing field, and it doesn't seem to be slowing down. Technology is making it easier and easier for the average joe to take a good picture. So how would the professional photographer be able to survive in an over-saturating field like photography or video?

My prediction is since photography & video is becoming easier to capture, soon (if it hasn't already happened) there will be an expectation to be able to do both. There is a consistent reoccurring pattern, as technology grows so should the skill sets of industry professionals. Besides having my own personal reasons, this is why I strive not to just master photography but video as well. Professional photographers are dying, professional media generators are thriving.

In addition, I anticipate a hunger for people to learn how to capture better images since more people have the ability. I'm currently honing my teaching skills to so I can be a better instructor to those who want to learn to capture quality media.
