Great tip as usual!
I'm still a beginner but one of my tip for other beginners such as me would be... get a 56mm or 75mm as soon as you can! If you shoot Sony/Fuji APSC, get Sigma 56mm F1.4! or 75mm F1.2 Viltrox! It's very challenging to shoot portraits with a wider lens imo.
I'm still amazed how many people love the compression that the 56mm-75mm has! Almost certainly they'll love the images, no matter the composition, the bokeh would cover up our still-learning-composition big time!

I'll make a video soon comparing different portait lenses
