I plan on incorporating Adam's photographical style into my own work as I like the angles he uses, the lighting, the way the subjects of the photographs model and even the way some of his images are black and white and others are colour etc.
Something I have learnt from Adam is that when he does a photoshoot from a live concert he only gets about 5 - 10 good shots even though he has taken 100 - 200. This tells me that shooting images of bands is very hard and has to be done properly and professionally in order to achieve the best results. What this tells me about shooting images for my magazine is that I may have a problem getting the right shots and must take a lot of images just to be sure. Another thing I have learnt from Adam is that lighting is extremely important when taking images of bands because they are not professional models so unlike shooting for a fashion magazine they do not know how to pose in order to look there best, so lighting that the photographer has set up has to do the job for them. Something I plan on incorporating into my own images is the beam-style lighting that Adam uses as a background for some of his images, as shown above. I want to use this in my own work so it gives the effect that the person in my main images is playing a live concert or feels at home when playing a concert so I have set up lighting to match the lighting of a concert to make them feel more at home and comfortable which will allow him to act the way he would when performing therefore allowing the reader to experience this in the comfort of their own home without actually going to a concert.
