Honestly I am so fed up with this kit lens that came with my RP. The images just look flat and boring and I have this graduation shoot coming up next Saturday for my sister and I'm panicking because I cant get that blurry background look everyone wants. My logic was that the camera would do most of the work but man the f/4-6.3 is just killing me in the low light we have here in Seattle.

I've been looking at the RF 50mm 1.8 since it's cheap but then I saw some reviews saying the 85mm is better for portraits but $600 is way out of my reach right now. I've only got about $350 max to spend on this and I need it like yesterday. So I was thinking maybe I should just get an adapter and use old EF lenses? But then the adapter is another $100 and it just feels like I'm throwing money away on old tech when I just bought a mirrorless camera.

Is there any hidden gem I'm missing that wont break the bank? I just need something sharp that wont make me look like an amateur when I show her these photos. Every time I think I've found a lens the price jumps up or its out of stock and I'm just about ready to give up on this thing...
