The EF85mm f/1.8 USM lens has a great focal length for fashion portraits. For fashion and beauty photographer, Shavonne Wong, who often has to shoot head or half body shots, the amazing bokeh and magical combination of the 85mm and f/1.8 brings out the facial dimensions with its sharpness up front, and soft focus that fades around the ears. "Its ability to melt backgrounds away is pretty incredible!" she tells us.
