Alex Lake - Photography Inspiration



Alex Lake is a UK based photographer who has worked with magazines, such Q and Wired, record labels, such as Sony BMG and Island Records, plus other clients. While I have only found two images that I really like, it means I can be more selective with the type of shots I take. Although the first image is of a  group, I particularly like the colour. This is the type of colour I would want to use as I feel it conforms to conventions of the genre. It is also shot in an open space, again-conventional and I like images that are landscaped long shots.
The second image goes back to my earlier research of Sam Jones. This time the image only features one person which is what I want. I like that he is seen to be doing something- therefore black and white to draw less attention to the surroundings. It also draws attention to the fact he is looking directly at the camera. However, this is not something I want in my images.
