| Here's a link to an article about the photographer who did the formal portraits for the wedding. I like it that his mother (age 71 -- I can relate to that!) is part of his team. |

"Extensive lighting and computer equipment" ... "also using stopwatches to ensure perfect timing".
Stopwatches? |

All the cutting edge photographers have upgraded from hourglasses. ...yet there are some who still use sundials. |

| I'm guessing the stopwatches were for keeping track of the overall allocated time with them, as well as the allocated time for accomplishing each shot. Pretty clever, actually, in a situation like that. Clearly he did a LOT of preparation. |

Yeah... For the flash powder :-) When they told the photg x minutes... I suspect they might have been held to that timeframe. |

| Yeah...I'm still not seeing how a stopwatch comes into play. :) |

I suspect the photog isn't allowed much creativity with "royal" photos... don't look for trash-the-dress photos anytime soon. |

Hmm...so they had 2 photographers then. I was watching part of the wedding and as Kate was getting in the car prior to going to the church, there was a female photographer doing the photos in and outside of the car, with an assistant tidying the dress. I wonder who she was?

She was there at request of the couple to capture the day in a `reportage` style. She is a friend of the couple.

I saw that also Judi.
Only got a quick glimpse and they didn't discuss it at the time.
Ouch.

Me too :-( For the record, I think they are VERY well done.

Agree with Rob 100% - you can`t go quirky on shots like these - beautifully arranged and the lighting is perfect. Great set of official shots - remember, these will be in the history books for a very long time. I daresay the arrangements were planned out way in advance.
