As the official portrait photographer for the British royal family for more than 45 years, Arthur Edwards is regarded as one of the most enduring authorities in his field within the royal family. Among his notable accomplishments is being the first to capture a photo of Princess Diana.
He started out as a simple journalist for the newspaper “The Sun” in 1980 and has since attended and taken pictures of seven royal weddings, seven royal births, and five royal funerals. According to the media, he is one of the few people who has been closer to all members of royalty throughout several generations. He even attended Diana honeymoon when she married King Charles III.
The British royal family has been the subject of countless situations and memorable moments, making Arthur one of the few people with access to their many intimate details. He even covered the shocking moments of Diana tragic accident, and he is referred to by some entertainment media as a “treasure chest.”
Fans and ardent royalists claim that if Arthur decided to reveal information that only he and the british royal family know, he would ruin more than one relationship. Of course, this is very unlikely to happen because as the monarchy’s official photographer, they undoubtedly had to leave written records to protect the staff’s confidentiality.
