Although much of her photography is completed on a private commission basis, such as for private wedding photographs of the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge, the images that have made it into the public domain have captivated viewers with their insightful use of natural light and stunning composition.
When it comes to photographing the royals in particular, Millie regularly updates her website with insightful comments about each image and how she composed it, such as Prince William’s iconic 2023 Father’s Day image.
Posting on her site, Millie wrote: “I love how this portrait captures the love the children have for their father Prince William. With Prince Louis hugging his father’s neck in true joy, whilst Princess Charlotte and Prince George, with their hands on Prince William’s knees, and laughing adoringly up at him, you can see the adoration they have for their father, and the fun they have with him.”

She also previously revealed how she had been “feeling truly blessed” after being asked by Kate Middleton to photograph Princess Charlotte for her 8th birthday last year.
