I love this lens so much. You look around for a good shot or angle and think "maybe this will be ok" and then you look through the lens and it's instant magic. Fall pics with my kids today, my daughter is so easy to photograph and with the 105 is even easier.
This shot terrifies me! My 4 year old daughter will be this big tomorrow! 😩 Love the colors in this shot

You are speaking out my words!
It is just as you are saying - look through the finder with this lens attached and it is magic indeed!
The portrait of your daughter is really lovely and she looks stunning natural - must be easy to take a good
shot under these conditions!
Keep on using this marvelous lens for portraying your family ! Will always be great to look back on those photos in some years to come!
You have to select your background. Not a fan of trees, but if you do so, then it has to take the entire back of your frame. The right dead speace is distracting. you are a bit to far from the model.
Centrate more your subject to focus on the eyes. The clothes colours of your model are not very attractive, so maybe think of a black and white, or choose a brick wall to match with the red.
Then the model has to be straight on your camera. Take a place where you can see the sky reflecting in the eyes of the model.
That would be my way of taking this kind of portraits.

Don't worry, there is no competition here
For god sake there is a a ton of different styles in photography! (DJ R is a very good photographer)
The images I produce are something I have in my mind, and that reality can't give me. So I work (hard), with lights, modifiers and pp, to get something that can be the closest possible of what I have in my head...Sometimes it matches..And sometimes not...then I have to work even harder
