According to the British " Daily Mail ", on September 29 local time, the 40-year-old Welsh Princess Kate Middleton received Royal Navy sailors at her Windsor Castle residence. Princess Kate was wearing an Alexander McQueen navy suit and a white shirt inside, which was elegant and generous. However, one of the most popular news in the UK that day was negative news about Princess Kate - British photographers complained that Kate took photos of the children themselves, depriving young photographers of their growth opportunities.
Princess Kate was appointed as the royal patron of the Royal Navy Glass in 2021. On the 29th, Prince of Wales and the princess posted on social media that the meeting with the sailors was to "learn more about their roles and further plans to get her (Kate) to the water", with a tone full of British humor.
The Daily Mail uses exquisiteness to describe Kate on that day. Kate's navy blue slim suit comes from Alexander McQueen. The single top is priced at US$1,995 (about RMB 14,000), and the Dutch Cooper shirt inside is priced at US$165 (about RMB 1,200, sold out).
Kate discussed with dozens of sailors the construction of the city-class 26 frigate and the life of the Royal Navy. The ship's executive officer, Darran Sullivan, said that he felt honored to be invited to Windsor Castle to meet His Royal Highness 4 Princess of Wales, and it was clear from the meeting that the Princess of Wales had a real interest in the lives of the Royal Glass and the people on board. But on the other hand, the Daily Mail published a long article pointing out that the Princess of Wales was accused of "shattering the hopes of a generation of photographers" - she herself photographed portraits for the children of the royal family, refusing to give others the opportunity to become famous, "these opportunities should be given to young British photographers".
The royal photographer John Swanel is the one who made the above view.
htmlFor more than 0 years, Kate has been taking photos on some important occasions, such as children’s birthdays, Father’s Day , Christmas, etc., and even making blessing cards to publish them, but Swanel does not agree with this approach.Swanel pointed out that Princess Kate refused to give others a chance to become famous.
Swanel said that his shooting work in the royal family has indeed improved his career, but now people like him have no chances at all. " these opportunities should be given to young British photographers ."
But Swanel also admitted that there are benefits to the princess taking photos by herself. He said, "In some aspects, Princess Kate may be right to do this by herself. She is not a great photographer. She just pressed the shutter, but for shooting children, if you know them, your shooting will be much easier."
Princess Kate's interest in photography can be traced back to her college days, and her undergraduate thesis is mainly children's photography.
2015, shortly after Princess Charlotte was born, Kate took a photo of his eldest brother Prince George holding Charlotte, becoming the first royal member to take official photos of the royal baby.
Just earlier this year, Princess Kate also shared the photos she took for her eldest son Prince George while playing on the beach, as the official photo of George 's 9th birthday.
On May 2 this year, Duke of Cambridge and Duchess found a photo of Princess Charlotte holding a puppy. It was Kate's 5th birthday photo for Xiao Xia.
20 Father's Day in 2020, Kate shared a photo of Prince William with three children swinging . The swing in the photo is very memorable. It was their father Charles III . King of King 4 William and Kate's wedding gift.
In 2020, Kate also released photos of Xiaoxia doing volunteer services such as food packaging during the COVID-19 pandemic.
royal expert Camilla Tomini explained to Kate’s official photos himself that this model is unique to the Prince of Wales couple. Royal children always have to post official photos, and taken by mothers can help their children maintain a certain degree of privacy.
