Canon person here........ so don't know nuffink about Nikon lenses, or cameras........... I shoot 'au naturel' whenever possible with my fave lens a Canon 50mm f1.2, but have had some success with a borrowed Sigma 30mm f1.4 and that seems wide enough (too wide really for my tastes) on my 1.6 crop camera.

Only 'tip' really is for best results try a south facing room with net curtains up, to soften the shadows.

1.8, I don't find particularly fast. I also have the 85 1.8 and 50 1.8 and find I need to bump ISO if the light levels are starting to dip.
