New photos shine a stylish light on Royal christening

Katie Mythen-Lynch

Kensington Palace has released a selection of Cambridge family photographs taken on the day of Princess Charlotte’s Christening. 

The images, which are strikingly stylish, were taken on Sunday by celebrity photographer Mario Testino and feature the Duchess of Cambridge Kate Middleton and the Prince of Wales in various relaxed poses with their two children.

We’ve become accustomed to the Middleton/Cambridge clan looking pristine, so we were thrilled to see Kate Middleton’s brother James Middleton steal the spotlight by sporting a thick beard in the family portrait. Well played Jim.

The photographs were released on the Kensington Palace Twitter account, which has become the preferred form of communication with the public on all things Kate and Wills.

While the entire christening album is jaw-dropping, our favourite shot by far is this relaxed snap of the Duchess and her little girl. A fashion bunny is born.
