In some ways Alison Jackson's publicity for this book was 'the royal wedding' that kicked off 'The Royal Wedding'. For anyone who's never come across Jackson's work before, she basically uses fuzzy photography and celebrity lookalikes to send up her subjects. In this book she combines her photography with a pithy commentary by Kitty Soames, bringing us right up-to-date by taking us through the story of Kate and William - their romance, their engagement, and most importantly, their wedding! From Charles and Camilla to Elton John and the Beckhams, no one escapes Jackson's eye for the absurd!

It's always hard to explain a photography book in a review, so here's a couple of examples: a young Kate sitting in her bedroom surrounded by posters of William. The Queen teaching her to shoot pheasants, much to her horror. Kate designing a new coat of arms with marker pens and Tippex. William going for a pint and a game of pool with Michael Middleton. The wedding party doing the conga around the throne room... I could go on. I'll just say that this is a pointed but quite affectionate tribute to the Royal Wedding, and well worth a look for a bit of a giggle!
