The Royal Wedding

The long wait is finally over! Hottest news off the press that the happy couple have confirmed that they are engaged. Everyone loves a good wedding, and it won’t get much more spectacular and more talked about than this one.

As many are aware, its been a tough couple of years for the lookalike industry due to the credit crunch but I’ve got a feeling things will pick up very soon for the Royal Lookalikes, and I’m sure Alison Jackson will have something up her sleeve! Much speculation has already occured throughout the world as to where and when the wedding will be held, so be prepared for a spring or summer wedding! No doubt the bookies will be cashing in on this one. Congratulations to both Kate and Wills.

Part II: Alison Jackson ‘Wills & Kate’ Photo Shoot

The shoot went really well and revealed in the experience. The scene was set… ‘Wills’ proposing to ‘Kate’. A much talked about and speculated subject by the media and British folk!

Alison wanted to capture an image that would capture the much anticipated images of the couple in that particular scene. Dressed in Military dress and ring in hand, before I knew it I was down on one knee…not something I had expected at this stage in my life!

Alison Jackson ‘Wills & Kate’ Photo Shoot

I received a phone call yesterday inviting myself and Kate to a photo shoot with well renowned photographer, Alison Jackson.

As my schedule was free for that particular day I decided to take  the rare opportunity to have my picture taken with Kate Middleton (Jodie Bredo) in a fantastic location, Ditchley Park. This was to be the start of my career as a lookalike as Prince William.Kate and I made our separate ways to the shoot, as she was in London having prior wedding dress fitting shots . Whilst driving past Oxford on atypical British summers day, I was thinking that it was probably fair to say that I didn’t have a clue what to expect…I’d done some prior research into some of Alison’s work and I had to wonder what was install!

On arrival, I was greeted with the crew and divulged into a well needed cup of tea! This was to be my first shoot and what an experience it turned out to be…
