Unveiling the Magic Behind Prince Louis' 7th Birthday Portrait
Photoshoot Session for Prince Louis' Birthday Celebration - Royal Family Celebrates Prince Louis's Birthday with a Photoshoot
It's the big day for Prince Louis, the youngest member of the royal family, as he turns seven today! With his winsome grin and missing front teeth, the ladsman continues to charm everyone he meets. To mark the occasion, his parents, the 'First Couple' of the monarchy - Prince William and Kate, have treated us to an exclusive behind-the-scenes video of the photoshoot, now available on their Instagram account.
The Boy Who Leaped into His New Year
In the delightful 90-second clip, Louis, dressed in a casual blue and white checkered shirt, dark green pullover and jeans, can be seen frolicking around the scenic grounds of Anmer Hall in Norfolk. He's captured dancing, chatting, and even making a daring jump off a large tree trunk, all while uttering the amusingly confident line, "I can jump down from here."
The mirror-like footage captures the playful spirit of the birthday boy, and the video is credited to the Kensington Palace social media team. Unlike previous birthday portraits, Kate, the photography enthusiast, handed over the camera this time around.
A Shift in Tradition
Earlier in 2023, there was a bit of an uproar surrounding an edited Mother's Day photo, leading Kate to take a step back from her photographer responsibilities. For Louis' seventh birthday, though, she bucked royal tradition and allowed a professional, Josh Shinner, to capture the official portrait. The photoshoot may have also involved filmmaker Will Warr, who has previously collaborated with the Waleses' team on various projects.
This isn't the first time the palace has employed social media to share intimate royal moments. In fact, under the stewardship of William and Kate, the palace's use of social media has significantly increased, allowing fans a closer glimpse into the royal family's daily lives. For now, let's toast to the birthday boy, Prince Louis, and enjoy his natural, carefree charm, on full display in the adorable new video!
