Well said Alexi, I’ve seen a few divas on set over my 20+ years as a photographer. … once, even a stylist slapping my photo assistant around the face !! Yep he was out of there. Just be nice, makes it so much easier and happier. 😊
Alright I can vouch for this- as a huge fan of Alexi many moons ago, I had the opportunity to assist a job for him. Day went well, crew was great, and after we wrapped I decided to ask before I left if I could get a picture with Alexi as a personal momento. My request was the type of thing that normally in NYC would get you escorted out of the building. However, not only did Alexi take a photo with me, but he said "Let's take a bunch of pictures!" He got his first assistant to come over, take my camera and shoot a series of photos of us doing different expressions, poses, just having fun. We pretended to be models and the assistant pretended to sort of be a Austin Powers type of photographer. So I got a bunch of photos with one of my biggest influencers (before that was even a term), but he also went above and beyond in acquiescing my request. Still have the photos, still appreciate the gesture and I am still grateful for the opportunity to have gone so well.
Such good advice, thanks
Good advice. Alexi please advise on when should a young Photographer approach photography agencies to sign them? How should one approach an agent- How to articulate the introduction email? Please also share with us what rates to charge when starting off, day rate, half day rate. Also share what kind of rates to charge once more experienced just to give us a better perspective. Thank you :)
Well done sir
Hi alexi, for fashion photography ı want to ask question whats the 5 important difference between good and bad fashion photographer if you must say 5 things. Thank you 🙏
Hi Alexi many thanks for this. Do you have any advice for photographer who is shy and introvert? It would be really great and helpful to hear from you
Can you become a renown or successful photographer through self education (I mean without attending a formal school of photography, art etc)? I suppose today with the potential of reaching people through social media it may be easier to attract audience. Thank u.
wait, what about Brazzers?) LOL😄
