ROYAL BABY BLUE – BY GEORGE, THIS IS NOT ABOUT THE PRINCE OF CAMBRIDGE

 

Although we at Twenty York Street, along with the rest of the free world, congratulates the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge for the much anticipated birth of His Royal Highness Prince George Alexander Louis of Cambridge, this post is not about that. We do follow the coverage of the biggest news from the United Kingdom (courtesy of the royal spawn of Prince William and Kate Middleton), perhaps next to J.K. Rowling’s billionaire’s status due to her magical creation of that boy wizard – Harry Potter.

I still cannot believe our luck! The Twenty York Street crew – master photographer Richard Tardif, multi-talented videographer Patrick  Walton, writer and myself – was in awe every step of the way. I had the opportunity to meet and interview some of the cast and crew including Amanda Balius, head of wardrobe (did I mention make-up and fashion wonderfuland?) for #TOTEM.
