Celebrity photographer gets Prince George job
Print Edition
Celebrity portrait photographer Jason Bell, known for his pictures of Paul McCartney and David Beckham, will take the official christening photos of Britain’s Prince George, Kensington Palace said yesterday.
Prince William and his wife Catherine asked him to take the official photographs following today’s service in the Chapel Royal at St James’s Palace.
Bell is renowned for his portraits of Beatles legend McCartney, football icon Beckham, and Hollywood stars such as Scarlett Johansson.
The award-winning photographer will take the pictures at Clarence House, the home of William’s father Prince Charles, the heir to the throne.
The pictures are set to become milestone images in British royal history as they should show four generations of monarchs together: Queen Elizabeth II, her eldest son Charles, his eldest son William and the new royal baby.
The last time such a baptism photograph was taken was in 1894 at the christening of the future king Edward VIII, showing the infant with his father, later king George V, grandfather, the future king Edward VII, and great grandmother, queen Victoria.
The pictures will be released tomorrow.
