So how did the royal couple stumble upon the photographer?

Talking to the entertainment outlet, Lubomirski revealed that it was Markle who found him. Like any other bride, Meghan found him with the help of recommendations and Instagram.

"I think one of Meghan's friends saw me on Instagram that I was in England during the announcement of the engagement, and I was told later that this person said to her, 'You should meet Alexi. He's great. You'd love him' and that was it," he recalls.

"It was one of the easiest, most joyful jobs because they were so deliciously in love," he said about the engagement shoot, adding that the couple would "smile and giggle" when they looked at each other.

The Kensington Palace reveals that Lubomirski received his first camera when he was 11 years old. He was born in England but eventually moved to Botswana when he was 8.

Botswana stands as a connection between the couple and the photographer as Meghan and Harry spent the former actress's 36th birthday there. The engagement ring, given to the Suits star by the royal, also features a stone from Botswana.
