    Celebrity snapper Hugo Burnand will be responsible for capturing the couple’s special day

    With just over a week to go until the wedding of the century, Clarence House have announced the name of the photographer who will capture William and Kate’s special day – none other than celebrity snapper Hugo Burnand.

    THE ROYAL WEDDING: ALL THE DETAILS

    The famous photographer has photographed Lucien Freud, Margaret Thatcher, Victoria Beckham and even Prince William in the past, and was also the official photographer at the wedding of Prince Charles and Camilla in 2005.

    It’s thought Burnand will be responsible for shooting the royal couple's official photos as well as all the action from the special day on April 29th.
