[QUOTE="CoolMistery, post: 636455, member: 42629"] My cousin is wanting me to take outdoor Senior Portraits of her daughter. I don't have much experience in portraits. I've done them a few times for family for free but nothing I've been paid for. The thing I was wanting to ask is I'm currently using a Nikon D5300 with 18-55mm kit lens, 35mm, and a 55-300mm (I can tell you the f-stops if need be once I get home). I've heard the 85mm is really good for portraits, but I prefer to work with what I have rather than buying another lens, at least at the moment since I don't take portraits often. I may be able to spare $200-$300 for a used lens but not sure yet. Anyone have any suggestions of what would be best to use or what you use? Thank you in advance for all your help! :) [/QUOTE]
