Still it takes more than a girl and a camera to shoot good amateur porn. It needs someone who can generate the same emotions, athmosphere and performance from a paid model who's often a stranger. That a partner would generate. Or even the same emotions, athmosphere and performance from a paid model pretending to be shooting it for her BF.

If a shooter can do that, his content rises to the next level.

Where there's less competition. Because as you say you don't need anything else, like all the rest scrambling to get a slice of the same market. The higher you go the less the competition. smaller market maybe, but more customers per supplier = more $$$$

Assuming you can reach that level. and here's the real problem. Very few could. Which was great for those who did.
