  • Formore than 40 years I have been taking photographs of the Royal Family at their favourite holiday home in the Scottish Highlands, covering the ups and downs of their lives.
    It was here I first spotted Prince Charles with Lady Diana Spencer and broke the story of their love affair.
    Then Balmoral was the place where the Queen comforted her son Charles and her grandsons in the dark days after Princess Diana’s death in Paris in 1997.
    But incredibly, in all that time I had never been inside Balmoral - until now.
    Since the Queen’s death in 2022, King Charles has been determined to make the castle the latest royal residence to open to the public.
    On April 2, nearly 3,500 “golden tickets” went on sale at £100 each.

    Many years ago ( 1970/80s) I went on a tour of the grounds and got to get a peep through the windows of some of the downstairs rooms. One was obviously a dining room, what I was surprised at was that at the entrance to the kitchens the carpet was threadbare. I did think it was a bit dangerous for the waiters in case they tripped but it also made me realise that this was a family holiday home and I rather liked that.

    I was lucky enough to tour the grounds & ballroom a few years ago. I remember thinking as I walked down the staircase to the ballroom that Queen Victoria herself would have touched that very bannister. Balmoral is more stunning than you can even imagine. Whilst I would be the first to admit I would love to have a peep inside the private rooms, for me, the fact that I couldn’t added to the mystique. Personally I think it is a Shame that it will now be open to the public. I’m sure Queen Victoria would never have contemplated that her beloved Balmoral would ever become a visitor attraction. I appreciate however that Balmoral lies empty for most of the year & the upkeep must be enormous but the King can hardly be short of money. When I was there an old bloke was painting one of the window frames & another was repointing a chimney & gardeners were in the glasshouses all in preparation for Her Magesty the Queen’s annual holiday. As you walk up the driveway through the trees & catch a glimpse of the castle you can only imagine how excited the Queen must have been to arrive for her holidays. I am sure it was well planned in advance that she would end her days there. It really is beautiful.

    I wanted to be a photographer from being a young child. I came second in a national television programme photography competition when I was 17 in 1982. I started a job as a photographer and even had a shop. I was crippled giving birth, due to the obstetrician refusing the doctor's urging for my need to have a caesarean. I'm only tiny and my baby was was 8lb 6 ounces. I couldnt carry on. I still took photos the best I could of family etc.
    Now there is Instagram and other photography Internet sites, I have had many features and very much positive feedback.
    You have my dream job.
