Let's make this birthday one to remember.

49 years old (Born on August 01, 1975)

Happy Birthday, Alexi! You capture a dazzling world through your lens so brilliantly that even the Royals can't resist striking their best poses for you. Seriously though, if there's ever an award for making elegance look effortlessly cool—you're undoubtedly clearing shelf space already.

From iconic magazine covers to unforgettable portraits capturing history in perfect lighting—you've had quite the spectacular year behind the camera. May this new chapter bring more majestic moments and fewer photobombs from rogue pigeons (unless they're wearing crowns). Cheers to another fabulous spin around the sun filled with flashes of brilliance and smiles captured forever!
