Everytime I see pictures of this family, I just like them more and more. Philippe and Mathilde just seem like the perfect family. And as handsome as Amadeo is, he became even more attractive to me when I saw him hugging his baby sister and with his arm around his brother. Every member of the family just seems to be down to earth and loving towards each other. Albert and Paola should be very proud of their family.

I don't know if this link has been posted, but there's a little bit about the photo shoot from Wednesday's news.

Just go to "Woensdag" and then click next to '19u' (depending on what internet connection you have) and it should be at around the 29th minute.

Thank you for the link Danielle. :) I thought it was funny that Louise wasn't interested in wearing her father's sunglasses, Elisabeth laughing and running back to her parents, and Gabriel who was walking around like he was in a world of his own - cute, cute, and cute. :)

I love these annual photo shoots that the Belgian Royal Family has.
Elisabeth is absolutely adorable, it seems as though she really is a daddy's little girl, and as someone mentioned before, I love the picture where she has the same facial expression as Mathilde. I just watched the news clip of the photo shooting, and Elisabeth seems like such a lovely girl, I love the moment when she walked towards the cameras, giggled and ran back into her father's arms. It reminded me of myself when I was younger, sans the cameras of course. :)
I loved Louise as well, she's grown so much from the last time we've seen her, and she looks too cute for words. I can't wait to see what she gets up to when she's older.

It looks like that she got her braces removed, so maybe thats maybe why she is smiling more.

Great pictures Martine! I love the picture of Elisabeth skipping across the lawn!

It is obvious that Elisabeth physically resembles her father but has her mother's lovely charm!

Choose between breedband or smalband, go to "Magazine"; click on the Belgian flag with the crown on it (at the right) and then go to "Koning Albert en co poseren voor de foto in Laken"

Good question, photofan. :)

Thank you so much, Cathérine Bergeyck! :) (Great site with a lot of videos that I've never seen before, too.)
