Wedding Photography: The Best Frames Happen Between the Poses
Three people on a terrace above a working harbour, and none of them is looking at any of the others. A friend in black reaches over to fix the bride’s hair, phone and clutch still in her other hand.

Subject Isolation on the Beach: Canon RF 135mm f/1.8 vs EF 135mm f/2
This beach frame is a good argument for the 135mm focal length. The woman sitting on the sand holds the eye because she’s the only thing rendered with any real detail.

Nothing back there competes with her, and nothing back there had to be moved, cropped out or waited for.
