Take the 18-105. That will give you good versatility. You want to be able to use a high enough ISO to let you use a shutter speed of I would say around 1/60 as anything slower you will start to pick up motion blurring. When you get in do some test shots, or you can set your camera to auto ISO with a shutter speed no slower than say 1/60.

I don't get it why people with no idea about the basics of photography by cameras like the D7100…
Anyway take the 18-105 when your far away from the person you would like to photograph, then you'll do like was said before and put the camera into S mode, set the shutter speed to 1/60 or better 1/80 and the camera will do the rest.

If you can move closer to the person take the 50mm. Its probably the f/1.8 50mm and a very bright lens. You will be able to shoot at lower ISO and faster shutter PLUS you'll get a nice bookeh, as it is a good lens for portraits.
