I was just wondering how many of you "pros" buy/use actions? I only have one photographer friend who does this for a living and she uses them on almost all of her photos that she distributes to her clients. She shoots children/families and I DO like some of the results, but I'm wondering if it is worth the money that some of these places charge? Do you use them much with your own work or do you just do it yourself? I am so new to Photoshop that it's tempting to purchase some for that "instant gratification". What is YOUR opinion about them? Worth it?
I guess I should also say that the reason I ask is I thought it was kind of "cheating" so to speak, but I just bought a photography book last week and the author is giving credit on a lot of their photos to Kevin Kubota's actions. Just made me curious about how often "purchased actions" are used.
