A picture is worth a thousand words. And in the case of the Royal family who has a penchant for keeping their upper lip stiff, it is worth both a thousand words and more than a thousand bucks. Owing to the scarce number of interviews that the members of the Royal family give, it is left to the photographers to tell a story through their clicks. And one man who has excelled in this craft is Arthur Edwards. From the highs to the lows, through forty-five years of dedicated work, Edwards has deciphered the Royal family. Especially the likes of Prince George, Princess Charlotte, and Prince Louis.

Over multiple decades, Arthur Edwards has told the story of the Royal family through his lenses and has now picked up the pen. His bond with the Royal family is akin to that of a one-sided love considering his time, love, and observations. The Royal photographer has navigated through two generations of royalty and he has the perfect “trick” for those wanting to capture Prince George, Princess Charlotte, and Prince Louis.

Among the many things he has learned, he shared the “trick” to capture the perfect photo of the younger generation of the Royals. “The trick is to be patient,” Edwards said speaking to People magazine.

He also created a parallel between the younger Royal and Queen Elizabeth II. Edward’s golden trick is built on the theory that there ought to be a moment where the kids smile or wave or, in Princess Charlotte’s case -pull out their tongues. And you just need to be on your toes to capture that perfect moment.
