The Royal Family is so overwhelming popular here in England. Being French, it was quite a surprise for me to realize how much the members of royalty were looked upon. There isn’t a week when we don’t hear about them. However, all the info and photos we get are filtered and only a partial, glamorized version of their everyday life is allowed to be published.
English photographer Alison Jackson decided that it was high time for the public to have a sneaky peak behind the scenes. All these images are fake, with actors looking very similar to the real royals, but they still trigger a voyeuristic state within us. Maybe the Royals are just like everybody else after all?
