Get ready for the royal wedding of the year because Meghan Markle and Prince Harry are about to make history. With all eyes on them, every single detail about the couple and their upcoming nuptials has become headline-worthy. But before we talk about the big day, let's rewind to the magical moment when the world first saw their engagement photos. These stunning images weren't just a casual shoot; they were a celebration of love captured by the talented Alexi Lubomirski.
Now, Lubomirski is spilling the beans on what went down during that intimate photo session at Frogmore House in Windsor, England. If you've ever wondered what it's like to photograph a royal couple, you're about to get an inside look into that experience. This isn't just another photoshoot; it's a story of love, laughter, and the joy of capturing a special moment in history.
Speaking with E! News while attending the Daily Front Row Fashion Awards, Lubomirski couldn't contain his admiration for the royal duo. "It was one of the easiest, most joyful jobs because they were so deliciously in love," he shared. Imagine capturing the essence of two people who are genuinely smitten with each other. That's exactly what Lubomirski did, encouraging Harry and Meghan to simply be themselves while he did what he does best—taking breathtaking pictures.

The Perfect Couple, the Perfect Photographer
Here's the kicker: Lubomirski had never met the royal couple before this shoot. He was discovered through Instagram by one of Meghan's friends. "It was nutty. It was a very surreal end to the year because it came out of nowhere," he recounted. "I think one of Meghan’s friends saw me on Instagram and realized I was in England during the announcement of the engagement. Later, I was told this person said to her, ‘You should meet Alexi. He’s great. You’d love him,’ and that was it." Talk about a serendipitous moment!
From Instagram to Royal Photographer
Alexi Lubomirski is no stranger to capturing the essence of celebrities. This renowned fashion and portrait photographer has worked with some of the biggest names in Hollywood, including Julia Roberts, Beyoncé, and Keira Knightley. His training under the legendary Mario Testino has honed his skills, making him the perfect choice for such a prestigious assignment. Despite his impressive portfolio, Lubomirski was deeply moved by the experience of photographing Meghan and Harry.
He opened up shortly after the photos were released, saying, "It was an incredible honor to be asked to document this wonderful event, but also a great privilege to be invited to share and be witness to this young couple’s love for one another. I cannot help but smile when I look at the photos that we took of them, such was their happiness together." His words perfectly capture the joy and excitement that surrounded this historic engagement.
The Big Day is Approaching
Prince Harry, 33, and Meghan Markle, 36, are set to tie the knot at St George’s Chapel at Windsor Castle on May 19. This highly anticipated event is expected to draw a crowd of around 600 guests, with a select 200 close friends also invited to an exclusive after party at Frogmore House.
