The Changing Landscape of Photography

[benjikan]

What I have come to realize is that the photographer must be adept in a much wider range of disciplines than was acceptable only a few years ago. He/She must be a photographer an intermediate art director, retouch artist and visionary. The importance of being a good communicator is also a vital part of the profession. Even if one has an agent the importance of this diversification can't be understated.

What are your impressions about where the photographer is today?

I don't see a difference at all. Same things apply today. Software is the new darkroom. The only difference is the accessibility to so many people.
