I'm not in portrait photography at all, but I like to try. Feel free to comment!

I thought I would try out my 50 year old lenses: Canon FD 50mm f/1.5 SSC and Canon FD 28mm f/2.8 on my Canon R5 with the use of the appropriate adapter.

These photos were taken just outside of a small town in central Portugal.

I really enjoy creating something different with drones. I've had the Mavic now for about four weeks and I absolutely love it.

Sometimes it feels good to change up the usual, right?
This a good shot, short depth of field keeps your eye firmly on the model. The model has a wonderful energy in her eyes and smile, very inviting. I especially like the reflection in her sunglasses picking up the flowers in front of her, yet the reflected color closely matches her shirt, did you do that in post or did that happen naturally?
My only issues: I wish the white flowers below her right hand weren't so close to blown, and the shoe behind her head wasn't so bright. I also wonder how this would look as a square 1:1 crop to eliminate a bit of the bottom of the image.
Love it ~
Thank you very much for the detailed comment Joe and I'm glad you love it!
It certainly looks good also in square format, and these reflections on sunglasses are natural.
Shoes and parts of flowers were not in the shadow of scrim, so they are brighter, so close to blown what you nicely noticed. Larger scrim would be solved the problem.
