Patrick Demarchelier, the photographer who took some of the most captivating and memorable portraits of Princess Diana, has died aged 78.
The Frenchman was contacted by the Princess of Wales in 1989 after she saw one of his images on the cover of Vogue.
Their first shoot the following year produced the famous black and white photograph of Diana wearing a strapless dress and tiara.
Afterwards the princess took the unusual step of asking Mr Demarchelier to become her personal portraitist – the first non-British official photographer of the Royal Family.
