The intensity of light falls off in inverse proportion to the square of the distance, and I feel that lifting what you call the "blocked shadows" would make the pictures look like stills from a surveillance video. As for the “losing the guy on the left hand side” of the first picture - - no way, he, together with the light coming through the umbrellas, in my view, makes the picture. Also, the tilt of the last picture (taken with a 21mm lens) is intentional). For me, leveling the picture would ruin the dynamics of the photo.
