In recently released royal wedding spoof photos by renowned sartorial photographer Alison Jackson, no topic is off-limits.

The series, featuring look-a-likes of some of the royal wedding’s most famous characters, depicts an imagined  romance between Pippa and Prince Harry: “As imagined by Jackson, the pair spent the previous evening flirting, feeding each other wedding cake and dancing energetically on the dance floor,” says the Daily Mail.

This particular series was especially created for the Blu-ray Triple Play and DVD release of the wedding comedy Bridesmaids.
