Wow Yennie, thanks for these 'Non Royal' photos (as you labelled them) as they bring back a time when the whole Swedish Royal Family was so much more spontaneous & uninhibited...!
Now they're all adults and understandably self-concsious of pics being taken, plus the fashion statement they might make etc. -
(Although dressing up Princesses Victoria and Madeleine in the same outfits was, by the way, repeating one of the worst British Royal traditions as it is bound to make at least one of the sisters feel awkward, but what the heck, it still looks pretty -)
By comparison, these days the strain has started to show. I'd suggest that they get a more innovative photographer who does real portraits again. The latest official pics of the Swedish RF are as outdated as their website's design. By comparison, the Danish RF's approach towards official pics and design could serve as a great guideline here.

Thank you Boris!

Here´s three more photos, from different eras, but still of the same happy family

[rosalyn]

Do you have the dates of the above pictures? thanks

[Yennie]

The first one is private, so I dont know the date of that. The second one could be from christmas 1982? and the last one was taken on the Kings birthday in 1995

Are there some "official pictures" of the king and the queen, just the two of them, together? I think there used to be one of their website but I'm not sure..Post them if you have any!! Thanks!!

[mixer2002de]

well have a look at the official homepage of them at http://www.royalcourt.se for official pics of them !

[Josefine]

here is one more

[Yennie]

Here´s a photo of the whole family, attending a movie premiere in the early 90´s

This is the first time that I´ve seen all the children of the Haga princesses together. The only one missing is Victoria as she was still at Yale at the time.

The photo was taken on midsummers eve 1998 when Sibylla Ambler got married.

[Yennie]

In honour of midsummers eve, the longest day of the year, here´s some photos of Victoria, Carl Philip and Madeleine (and their mom :) ) celebrating midsummer by wearing flowers in their hair!

[Dennism]

Wow. What beautiful photos of the family with their flowers and wreaths. I especially like photos 4 and 5.

[Gita]

How sweet Yennie! Love the one of Princess Madeleine in particular.
