A chance meeting in 1936 gave Lisa and Jimmy Sheridan the opportunity of a lifetime. Keen amateur photographers, their company, Studio Lisa, was engaged by the then Duke and Duchess of York to take casual photographs of them and their young daughters, the Princesses Elizabeth and Margaret, at their Piccadilly home. The commoners and the royals struck up a friendship that would span over 30 years and yield 13 separate photographic sessions. Illustrated with nearly 100 black and white images, this charming book charts the story of Studio Lisa, and reveals the royal family at its most approachable and attractive.
