I have seen lots of professionals with many years of wedding photography (me included) who make a BIG advance, not because the years of experience but because of a workshop or a seminar - a couple of hours can change the habits of years, workflow and vision.
There is only one way for image evolution - and history shows this - SHARING! When knowledge became accessible and everybody started to share, not only knowledge but also images and ideas, then everybody became better. Because of the web and the social networking such as Facebook and Twitter, photographers from all over the world share and trade imagery, creativity, programs, marketing and advertising tips.
And that's why the quality and diversity is greater that ever.
If you take a look at a craftsman panel from 10 or even five years ago it is of today's average standard, thus the overall level today is higher than ever. That does not mean that the old-craftsmen have lost their value, but if someone today wants to be a craftsman or to win at image competitions they need to be REALLY good!
