This youtube clip is a bbc interview talking to the couple about there engagement and the meaning of what their engagement photos will show for the future.
From the clip I found that the photographer for the engagement photos were taken by Ian Lloyd.
Ian Lloyd is an Australian photographer who was born in Canada in 1953 and studied photography at Rochester Institute of Technology and Brooks Institute of Photography in the United States before coming to Australia in 1975. He worked in television and as a photographer for guide books before establishing his own photography and publishing company in Singapore in 1983.
So I looked into some of his previous work. But from looking at the photos hid did for the engagement and his past work it helped to think of the direction we wanted to take the photo shoot in.

I then looked into past engagment photos that was out their, to try and compare it to the royal engagment.
Compareing the images really helped to gather a greater understanding of how we wonted our images to look like, but just to be sure I then looked into past photos taken of kate to see what looks and poses works with.

hey Opal would you be able to research more into this as Mario Testino photographed the offical engagment photos of Will and Kate which i have put on the blog, so it doesnt sound confusing having two photographers doing the offical photographs.
