As a longtime royal photographer for Getty Images, Chris Jackson has learned to expect the unexpected. Between the unpredictable British weather, surprising fan reactions and historic royal moments, Jackson has seen it all. But he tells Marie Claire that one adorable interaction at Princess Charlotte’s christening completely changed his idea of what the standout image of the day would look like.
Jackson, whose latest book, Modern Majesty, was published on March 3, says as a royal photographer, you “start an event with an image in your mind, and sometimes it pans out like that and sometimes it doesn't.”
