From the modern-day fairy tale of the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge's wedding to the births of Prince George and Princess Charlotte and their soon-to-be new sibling to Prince Harry and Meghan Markle's historic marriage to countless Royal tours in between, this book presents the British Monarchy and Queen Elizabeth II, its most enduring icon, through the lens of one of its 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.

In his own words in captions and texts, he reveals the magic as well as the logistics of what it's like to photograph the Royal family.

From the excitement of royal tours to capturing official portraits and quiet behind-the-scenes moments of all senior members of the British royal family, Chris Jackson s singular insight into the most famous family on the planet has never been more exciting than now, on the cusp of the coronation of a new British monarch, the first in an astounding seventy years. Jackson s extensive archive of photographs of the former Prince of Wales and Camilla, the Duchess of Cornwall, now King Charles III and the Queen Consort, chronicles the extraordinary life of His Royal Highness -- the longest-serving heir apparent and the oldest person to accede to the British throne, at the age of 73, following the death of his mother, Elizabeth II. Accompanied by Jackson s warm and always engaging text, this book commemorates the beginning of a new reign and documents more than twenty years of tours, engagements, celebrations, historic moments, and royal family gatherings in a singular volume that demonstrates just how relevant the British royal family remains today.

As a Getty Images royal photographer, Chris Jackson has been granted privileged access to the monarch and the British royal family. He has documented the Queen s official engagements over the past two decades, during a period of seismic changes in the British monarchy. In photographs documenting public and private moments, and accompanied by warm and engaging text offering a personal perspective and behind-the-shot anecdotes, Jackson captures the Queen s great elegance and charm. From royal tours to hosting state dinners, this book takes us to the heart of what it means to be the head of the British royal family. Much has been made of the Queen s enduring style, and here a spotlight also is shone on the coats, dresses, evening gowns, jewels, bags, and accessories that make up the Queen s coordinated wardrobe. Uniting all that is British as an ambassador and statesperson, Queen Elizabeth II has seen more of the planet and its people than any other head of state, and has engaged with them like no other monarch in British history; she is unquestionably a global voice for our time.
