Résumé
From the modern-day fairy tale of the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge's wedding to the births of Prince George, Princess Charlotte, and Prince Louis to Prince Harry and Meghan Markle's historic marriage to countless royal tours in between, this book presents the British monarchy and Oueen Elizabeth II, its most enduring icon, through the lens of one of the family's most trusted photographers. Chris Jackson has been by the royal family's side on domestic visits and overseas tours for the past fifteen years, resulting in an unparalleled photographic archive of the evolving British royal family.
Occupying a front-row seat to history, Jackson's assignments have taken him to the four corners of the earth to document the extraordinary breadth and devotion of the royals to causes such as cancer research, mental health, and HIV awareness in Africa. Whether it's Prince George's first day of school, the Duchess of Cambridge playing cricket in Mumbai, or the Invictus Games, Jackson records moments both large and small with a warmth and sincerity that has made him a media standout.
In his own words in captions and texts, he reveals the magic of what it's like to photograph the royal family. This book celebrates fifteen years of the British royals in intimate portraits of a singular family's role on the world stage at a unique moment in time.
