Why the Canon 85mm f/1.2 is My Go-To Portrait Lens
By Grace Margritz, Colorado Springs Senior Photographer
When it comes to capturing timeless senior portraits, my secret weapon is the Canon 85mm f/1.2 lens. From its buttery-smooth bokeh to its razor-sharp focus, this lens consistently delivers stunning, professional results. Sure, it’s heavy—but I’ve come to believe that all that glass and craftsmanship is exactly why the images look so magical. You know you're working with great glass when it gives you muscles! In my opinion, the beauty it produces far outweighs any drawback.
