Response to Portraits in big rooms?

try moving closer to them with a wide lens

I think this shot was taken with my TS-E 24mm f3.5L lens, which is the widest I own. Maybe it really is time to splash out £2,300 ($3,700 or so) on the 14mm...

I could probably have gone a little closer and further to the left, but I wanted that lamp included: chains that lead to nowhere frustrates me in images. I'm unhappy about the table as it is. (Btw: it is only in the scan that the lady's feet are cut off.)

Moving further back (and using a longer lens) was not an option: I had my back to the wall.
