If the kid just moves a few more inches forward he would touch my camera. That is how close I am when I am shooting most of the time. People feel me right there, but also the viewer, THE AUDIENCE, is also that close.
You want better photos then you get closer with your feet and not zooming across the room.

When you get this close I often like to shoot at a higher aperture like ƒ/8 to be sure the important parts of the photo are all in focus.

Do you feel like you are right in the room with the campers at this summer camp? I hope so.

I did shoot with longer lenses occasionally, but most of the time I am using those super wide lenses to put you in the room with the people.

By the way I am shooting at 1/100 since I am under fluorescent lights. Anything faster and I will have banding with streaks in some of the frames.
The lesson is simple. Put the widest lens you have on your camera and get so close that the subject fills that frame.
