Doesn’t this look like the kind of storybook place where Will and Kate would live?

And the kiss—though somewhat stiff-lipped and sexless to those who watched it on camera, it does photograph well, does it not?

As alluded to earlier, we’ll be here at an ungodly hour to meticulously dissect the royal wedding, with street photography, analysis, insider scoop, and lots of wedding-dress photos. (We’re already exhausted from last night, so our prose should be at a sparkling, all-time high). Come! Come early! Come often!
And as with most things, drinking will enhance the experience.

We showed you every page of Charles and Diana’s July 1981 royal wedding program, featuring a formal, seated Lord Snowdon portrait of the couple. Now, Prince William and Kate Middleton have just released their version—in, among other formats, super-hip flippable PDF. This Mario Testino photograph is pages 18 and 19 of the new couple’s booklet, and we love it.
