Tnx...
P.S. I love your job, a true inspiration, my fav photographer.
Zarko.
Alexi, you are doing what I've been looking for years. I couldn't find anything like the new videos you're producing... Your videos not only teach new photographers how to take the first steps into the world of fashion and portrait photography, they also inspire us on how to do it the right way.
Thank you Alexi, keep on sharing... :)
Cheers
Thank you so much!!! You are really the nicest and kindest Top fashion photographer in the world!! All your videos are so helpful and inspiring!
man down! love it!
That head swap at the end with the guy carrying the carriage......genius
Thanks for putting this together. Very helpful!
I've been a fan of your work for a long time! Love how informative this video is, beautiful studio by the way! Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge, you are an incredible inspiration for me! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Very useful video again, thanks! :)
Great video as always. Your videos are so inspirational and informative Alexi, Thank you and your amazing crew. :)
Hey wait a minute, that's me!! THANK YOU ALEXI and all your team! Fantastic birthday present to me! Well I am happy to share with all. Haha. Seriously, thank you so much, as I said before, you are so generous. I will trust my gut more when sorting through all my choices. (Good rule for life too huh). Also I am starting to use Adobe Bridge - is that what that is?
Dear Alexi, I'm from Poland and I'm charmed your person. Really great man with you! Best wishes!
Beautifully filmed and edited video. Even though I'm not even close to being a photographer (well i take everyday pics), you make it seem very interesting/fun to dabble in.
Awesome Videos! Thanks!!! 😀
Incredible insight
Alexi, thank you very much for what you do. Your "The Garage" shooting for Russian Vogue just amazing.
I'm just starting to photograph and is very interesting to know how you are getting ready to shoot
sorry for my English :)
Thank you!
Alexi, thanks for educational but fun to watch videos :)
You allowed to ask questions :) can you please explain more about how you choose the light. Because one day you shoot with one light next day with another, how do you know what light works best and when? how do you choose how to light the subject and how do you come up with different lights - I mean you searching for inspiration or just trying something in hope that it will work or how the process is working? because for example very often I can have idea what to shoot but i'm not sure what light do I need to use for such idea.
I loved the video Alexi, I found it very interesting and well explained, thank you for making these. I´ve followed your work other the years among Vogue, Harper´s and beyond and it´s super cool. Keep it up :)
Great video!
*_Awesome video! I like it_*
Great video! All the content you've been posting has been extremely informative and also enjoyable to watch, so thank you.
I was wondering if you could make a video about your meditation practices? I've been meaning to get into meditation and would love to hear about how you got started, which type of meditation you perform, and maybe a brief technique tutorial? Maybe it's not suitable content for this channel, but I think a lot of us could benefit from it!
THAT'S GENUINE :) HE DIDN'T TAKE ADVANTAGE OF ME. I'M A NICE PERSON ❤️
Alexi!!! Thank you so much for sharing your magic! I've following your videos for so long and also i would love to be in a photoshoot ( just to see the magic a little closer... Probably in ny) cheers and thanks again!
+Alexi Lubomirski woow!! Awesome! I hope one day i can meet you and your team doing your work! Thanks for the reply and please post more videos because we photographers learn a lot
Thank again! Cheers!
Fantastic 😀 I would like to know how you organize/DAM all files with CaptureOne. Could you show us the strategy? How you combine PS and CaptureOne when C1 cannot read PSD files or layered tiffs? Thanks
Thank You!!!
Dear Alexi,
thank you for many great insights into your work and workflow. You showed us the images for german vogue in Capture One. Can you tell how much post processing is usually done to your images? I assume that not all the images in that Folder were postprocessed.for the final print in vogue? Or is there so little post processing that everything is done in Capture One? Do you / your Team Postprocess your images or is it done by externally? Kind Regards, Thomas
LIU WEN!!!
Man down! Man down!
Thank you, Alexi and Stephan!
Do you work with different retouchers? I want to retouch for you so much!
Awesome to see, very much on par with how I approach culling of a shoot.
I had a few questions, when you say "you grab one image and edit it" What do you mean by that?
Are you processing the colour of the raw file in say Capture One to where you'd like it, Or are you grading everything in photoshop?
And finally, what do you find is the benefit of doing this in the middle or beginning of a shoot? Do you find you change direction because of it? What does it do for you?
Thanks in advance Alexi, love your work.
+Alexi Lubomirski thanks for the reply! All good information. Must be a challenge to balance the momentum of the shoot and the checking to ensure its all working together. Great work!
Great, useful stuff! I do have one question (maybe even a topic for a future video) after seeing that you're pretty good at using Capture One. Basically, I'm wondering how much time a photographer should put into learning technical/software/post skills? Obviously it's good to know the basics, but I'm often trying to do the skin retouching, composites, etc, for my projects, while also hoping someday to have someone else with do all that. Same thing goes for trying to be my own digital tech. I know enough to get my simpler personal projects done, but sometimes I think I should sped time learning more and getting better at digital workflow, but then I also think it's taking me away from the creative role. So I guess I'm just wondering how you balanced that when doing your own work along the way.
+Alexi Lubomirski thanks, that's good to hear. I'll keep at the tech part too.
Hi Alexi, thanks for sharing your experience! just a question: which software do you use to create layouts on set? I normally use on set capture one pro, but can be tricky! any suggestion?
Excellent! I'm just starting into my professional photography journey, videos like this help tons. Have you made one about your beginnings. The nerve you had to gather up before submitting for the first time. Or even what was that process like as you began your journey. I'd love to hear about it. Hell, I'd love to shadow you sometime.
Thank you, I actually just watched it after I asked sorry. Thank you for responding so quickly though.
Cheers
I FEEL HAPPY IN DOING GOOD. JUST LIKE ALEC ARENAS. WE ARE NOT UNKIND TO THE LESS FORTUNATE. FOR ME, FLORENTINO S. SUSALO III IS VALUABLE :)
I have a question: What do you use for a layout - photoshopped jpegs on which program? All Photoshop and then send as a pdf to the client, as your layout. Ta !
HI Alexi, Which camera do you uses mostly?
great one! but still curious about how do you make this color in post editing +)
+Alexi Lubomirski thank you!
Great video as always. Thank you and your amazing crew. :)
I'd like to know if you saw lately some photographs that aren't connected to fashion, that impressed you? Like documentary or contemporary photography?
Are you interested in other type of photography?
And I wanted to ask you, what are you looking for, in your assistant? Or what's the perfect photographs assistant in your opinion? :)
Regards
Maciek

Hi Alex! I am huge your fan of photographer and Would to like to make details how you retouched the magazine photos, fashion and others. I hope you will response my enthusiastic request regarding my most happiest thing for photography..
I have a problem: sort of picking too many images that I like to edit/retouch and that consume a lot of my time later on. What should I do?
Thank you so much for always being so kind! I learned a lot from you! Highly appreciate your words! Hope I'll have the opportunity to meet you one day in real live.
ALEXI LUBOMIRSKI IS A GOOD FASHION PHOTOGRAPHER.
Hi! I know you've done a video on creativity before but are there any specific "vintage" photographers that inspire you and your work?
Newman is a favourite of mine too! Thank you for answering!
ALEX LUBOMIRSKI IS A GOOD FASHION PHOTOGRAPHER :)
Hi Alexi,
just found your channel through reddit.com/r/fashionbts
and really love it, so far!
One question though regarding the layout. Which program do you use for that?
I find Photoshop quite hard to use for layout purposes and don't have the possibility to print my images.
I believe you don't use frequency Separation and most photographer they crazily used.

FLORENTINO S. SUSALO III EVEN SACRIFICE NOT EATING JUST FOR ME TO EAT IN MANG-INASAL NEAR MINDPRO :) I FIND THAT GENUINE.
How many people are actually around your set ups?
+Alexi Lubomirski thanks for the quick answer! It's always astonishing to see sooo many people create something beautiful together
OMG hahahaha Alexi do you need another team member on your crew? I am available, quick learner, peruvian AND i don't fall or trip hahahaha
+Percy Ortiz i'll have you know that i didn't damage any cameras in that fall haha
+Stephan Alessi sign of a good assistant (y) your pride may take a bruising but cameras? NEVER! haha
The whole team, amazing job guys... i can only hope to be as good as you are someday :)
***** Perfect. Let me improve my work about 1000% and I'll send samples of my work knowing I won't embarrass myself :P
WHEN TAKING SOMEONE'S PHOTO, ALWAYS TAKE A PHOTO IN EACH POSE. WITH DIGITAL AND POLAROIDS, YOU CAN SEE STRAIGHT AWAY IF YOU HAVE GOTTEN IT. HUMANISE THE INTERACTION :)
FLORENTINO S. SUSALO III COURTED ME CAUSE I'M MABAIT :) I'M NOT MALDITA.
FLORENTINO S. SUSALO III COURTED ME PUBLICLY. UNCLE ALLAN VILLANUEVA KNOWS FLORENTINO S. SUSALO III COURTED ME :)
I am a very frustrated brazilain photographer in Japan,...why?...bcz here they don't let the photographers do what they want to do,...the editors here choose the picts themselves, the design of the page is already set before the pictures are taken, there is no room for cropping since they want to show every single detail of the clothes,...and I feel they don't want to tell a story...they just want to show the clothes...a head shot in an Prada editorial?...what for?...we don't see the clothes...right?...then they complain the magazines are not selling!..of course they are not selling...magazines are not selling a dream...a mood...they are simply selling clothes!...and fashion is not only about the clothes...right?...I guess it is where the clothes are going to take you to!...it makes me feel so frustrated...blocks my imagination...sometimes I want to have the pict with a bit more contrast,...but as she is wearing black all the details of the clothes disappear!!...:( ...black&white?...never!...you don't see the real colours!! :( have you ever dealt with these kind of things?...wish I could make my own fashion magazine here in Tokyo!
