I do not scrap with stock photos generally. It's just not for me, I like telling stories and using my own photos to supplement them. I also enjoy having really nice photos on my pages and definitely prefer the pages where I used nicer photos - I have spent a lot of time learning how to improve both the actual photo itself (like, trying to make the most out of not so great lighting/staging situations with photos) and the post processing of the not so great photos that accompany really great stories. It's a work in progress, but I'm pretty happy for the most part with how far I've come (though I've still got a long way to go).
I hope you were able to get connected to some sites that work for you in finding photos you love!
