In this week’s YouTube video, I’m comparing my two favorite lenses: the Canon RF 28-70 f/2.0 and Canon RF 85mm 1.2L!!!
I bring my 85mm 1.2L with me to EVERY engagement session and wedding… but do I NEED to?! Could I shoot everything with the 28-70 f/2.0?! I decided to put it to the test and in this video, watch me shoot THREE shots – same place, same subject, same lighting – with EACH lens. THEN Ty exports & edits them so I have NO IDEA which is which!!! I look at each image WITHOUT knowing what I used to shoot them and you’ll hear me evaluate what I love (and don’t love!) about each one!! We’re going to find out if you REALLY need to bring both of these on a wedding day OR if you can get away with ONLY the 28-70!!
Do YOU have both of these lenses?! Which one is your favorite??

When I’m scrolling on Instagram or looking through images after a shoot, some images just stand out and capture my attention more than others!
I don’t know if I have ever photographed a more gracious bride in the most horrendous heat! Seriously, Kelsey is a literal angel on earth. She brought her entire family to Virginia from South Dakota for this portrait session and was so incredibly kind even in the midst of 100 degree heat and humidity!
Lenses are NOT cheap, so when you invest, you want to make sure you’re choosing the best option!
If you think about a wedding day and the part that makes you cringe is having to interact and direct the groomsmen, I get it.
This was one of the most beautiful ceremonies I have ever seen, but the timeline didn’t quite pan out like we had planned.. The rings got lost, hair & makeup went long, storms were rolling in and there were some stressful moments!
You’re not going to believe this but this session was probably our easiest DC engagement session to date! We had glow, no crowed, a beautiful setting and the most wonderful couple!
