Zoom Lens Portrait - Post your best

not really "portraits" like most would define and not necessarily my best. im sure a lot of photos posted arent really the person's best. this is sharp, reasonably lit and shot with a 24-70f2.8L which IS a zoom

I think you capture them well

However, you can make it even better if you can pick the background with less distracting objects such as wall, empty ground .... So those two could be popped and become domain in the frame.

Or, alternatively, you can use photoshop to remove some unwanted objects or try to darken the background.

Hope they are not too picky, otherwise, it looks good to me.

Weren't planned or premeditated. Hence the comment about them not being like the other portraits usually posted here.

Agreed this was an unplanned shot……but still not a reason to not try and improve it. A heavy vignette or subject selection with a background exposure decrease in Lightroom would help to bring the focus to where you want it…..both just a couple clicks and less than a minute to try. If it doesn’t improve the image you still won’t be out much time or effort.
