At least the pros can make an average model look decent. Then again I'm sure the real pro stuff costs a fortune, so whatever.
Don't knock amateurs.

From a certain perspective, I am still very much an amateur. I have simple equipment, and taught myself photography. I still produce unique content, and seem to have hapy customers.

More importantly, though... Everyone starts somewhere. If we didn't have new people daring to enter the industry, then we wouldn't end up with any new ideas or growth. Sure, you get a lot of bottom-feeders, but in the end you get some good stuff, too.
