“Also does anyone else here not believe in using photoshop? I am not trying to belittle people who do I just am not into it.”

If you plan on shooting semi-pro shots, you at least need to shoot raw and edit the images in Lightroom to adjust white balance, tonal shades, cropping, shadows, midtone contrast – a whole host of things that a pro does once he / she sees the composition is correct and the image is sharp. That’s you’re foundation. You can’t fix an out-of-focus bad subject pose in Ps.
