Need feedback on a camera lens

I am intending to use it for shooting some content. I have rented the 28-300f/2.8 in the past and got some good results, although this is not the lens I rented before. I have been looking and ran across some other L series Canon lenses, but they are f/4.0.

My buddy is shooting with a 28-300...who knows what F stop it is, but he gets some nice results.
What I am looking for is a lens that I can get clean close up shots at a reasonable distance. We I say this I mean, I may want to shoot a model at the other end of the pool (up close) from the opposite end of the pool as well as having the availability to shoot her from, lets say 6- 8 feet away.
I could go up in the F stop as lighting is not too big of an issue because we have lights, but I thought I would try to get the 2.8 in case I am in low light.
I hope this makes sense
Thanks for the input
