So true. You can easily tell which shrubs have been chopped with a hedge trimmer, and which ones have been carefully pruned by hand.The chopped ones look terrible and start dying early. The pruned ones look natural and robust. Unfortunately, unless you do it yourself, you will be paying more for quality pruning (if you can find someone to do it).
