Alexi Lubomirski is a fashion who has worked for companies such as GQ, Vogue, Harpers Bazaar amongst many other popular magazines. I first learned of him this year in GQ however it was not for his photography but rather for the way that he dresses. He was voted into the top ten best dressed americans as he is often times mistaken for a model rather than a photographer.
After reading his article I began to look up some of his work, many of the photos I have seen in many issues of GQ. He has worked with many celebrities including Casey Affleck and Aaron Eckhart. If I were to describe his style it would be very clean and fresh with good use and attention with the light. On top of working for magazines he also exhibits his work showing that his work is not purely commercial. In his exhibits he goes for a more unclear look to the photos adding grain to highten the effect of his experimentation. Many of these shots are also seen as silohoutes or reflections which add to the mystery of the subject.
Alexi has inspired me to stay with photography and use it as a way to reflect my own personality into the pictures. I would one day like to have a career similar to that of Alexi's.
