Yes, a little post-processing can make a world of difference. You don't have to have the big expensive $700+ PhotoShop program either. PhotoShop Elements 7 (now 8 is out) for about $80 will take you a long way.

Also, if you will use something like Flickr or Picasso to pose your images, we can see more information about you camera settings to make better recommendations.
