Royal Wedding Photographer: Meghan Brings 'Breath Of Fresh Air'
CHICAGO (CNN) -- The photographer who captured the first intimate portraits of the newly married Duke and Duchess of Sussex has said he believes the bride will have a "huge" impact on attitudes toward diversity.
"I think with Meghan and the position that she's in, it's just another fantastic reminder, a wake-up to everybody, that we are all one people and it's a fantastic breath of fresh air to the English royal family," fashion and celebrity photographer Alexi Lubomirski told CNN.
"And I think it's just evolved them one step further, they are moving with the times, which is great, and yeah, it's wonderful."
Kensington Palace released three of Lubomirski's portraits as official wedding photographs on Monday.
They were taken after Prince Harry wed Meghan Markle in a lavish ceremony at Windsor Castle on Saturday, witnessed by millions watching live television around the world.
Lubomirski said he was thrilled to be asked to photograph their wedding, having previously taken their engagement portraits at Frogmore House.
The newly married couple were joined by senior royals including the Queen and Prince Philip as well as their 10 page boys and bridesmaids for the portraits in the Green Drawing Room at Windsor Castle.
