>Your Reliance on Presets is Going to Cost You Your Job!
I happen to agree with him for the most part.. That said, I make a living photographing Real Estate (something that I do NOT think will be a viable career in the next 10 years) due to tech advancements.
So all that said, if he is correct.. What areas of Photography will stay strong? I do not live in a big enough city to transition into commercial Architecture, so I will have to gradually transition into another area of photography if I want my career to continue.
My feeling is that it will come down to areas of photography that require other advanced skills (be it elaborate lighting knowledge or high end retouching skills). What areas of phtgraphy would you bet on being strong in the next 5 years? What about 10?

I think your shift key is broken.
All he's saying is don't use fuckin' vsco, my dude, and he's right. It's pretty appalling how many commercial photographers squeak by with another person's aesthetic.
Also, stop watching youtube photography videos. Just because they made a video doesn't make them an authority.

I dont use filters (apart from the 1 time where I had 1 client request her property images to look like they had an instagram filter on them.....).
But lets be honest, if an iphone could HDR merge an interior photo 95% of real estate photographers would go oout f business, Why? Not because HDR merge is good (its fucking shit) but its passable and if an agent can take a passable image by themselves then why would they pay a photographer to take a photo that they think isnt much better than there own.

Don't forget using a ridiculous wide angle lens to make the broom closet look like a very spherical aeroplane hangar
