皇家攝影協(xié)會(huì)舉辦了多次攝影展和研討會(huì)，一直以來(lái)與英國(guó)王室家族保持著密切的聯(lián)系：維多利亞女王和艾伯特王子是早期的贊助人，有幾位皇家御用攝影師也是其成員。專業(yè)攝影師斯諾頓勛爵在1978年獲得了胡德獎(jiǎng)?wù)隆?/p>

The society believes Kate is an excellent role model for keen amateur photographers. A spokeswoman said it was clear she had photographic talent.

攝影協(xié)會(huì)認(rèn)為凱特王妃是業(yè)余攝影愛(ài)好者的杰出模范。協(xié)會(huì)發(fā)言人表示，王妃有著突出的攝影天賦。

Dr Michael Pritchard, chief executive of the RPS, said: "The Duchess of Cambridge has had a long-standing interest in photography and its history."

英國(guó)皇家協(xié)會(huì)的理事長(zhǎng)邁克爾•普里查德說(shuō)：“劍橋公爵夫人一直以來(lái)都對(duì)攝影和攝影史十分感興趣。”

為了表示對(duì)凱特王妃的敬意，協(xié)會(huì)決定免去她每年108英鎊的會(huì)員費(fèi)。這一決定在昨日迎來(lái)了協(xié)會(huì)成員各不一致的看法。

"This is excellent news and further validation of the importance of photography in our world," Susan Leonard wrote on Facebook.

“這是一個(gè)好消息，進(jìn)一步表明了攝影在世界上的重要性。”蘇珊•倫納德在Facebook上寫(xiě)道。

But Amy Robinson said: "Honorary membership could be better allocated to those more deserving in my personal opinion." Former picture editor and society member Ken Lennox welcomed the move.

但是，艾米• 羅賓遜說(shuō)：“我個(gè)人認(rèn)為，榮譽(yù)會(huì)員應(yīng)該授予更加有資格的人。”前圖片編輯和協(xié)會(huì)成員肯•倫諾克斯則支持這一決定。

"I think she has a good eye, she shoots quite well."

“我認(rèn)為她眼光不錯(cuò)，拍的照片相當(dāng)不錯(cuò)。”

"We have all seen her photographs and I think she does it competently, as well as some professional photographers."

“我們看了她的攝影作品，我覺(jué)得她的攝影技術(shù)的確不錯(cuò)，拍得與一些專業(yè)攝影師一樣好。”

“她與照片的主人公待在一起的時(shí)間很多，這是她的優(yōu)勢(shì)，但是她真的很有攝影才華，歡迎她加入我們。”

The Duchess, who studied history of art at St Andrews University, has been spotted several times taking photos on Royal tours with her Canon EOS 5D Mark II and is understood to be knowledgeable about all aspects of photography.

凱特王妃在圣安德魯斯大學(xué)學(xué)習(xí)了藝術(shù)史，有好幾次都發(fā)現(xiàn)她拿著佳能EOS 5D Mark II照相機(jī)拍攝關(guān)于王室出行的照片，人們認(rèn)為她對(duì)攝影各方面知之甚多。

After university, she curated a number of exhibitions and was later commissioned to take photographs for her parents' company Party Pieces in 2008. But an exhibition of her own photos, due to be staged in the same year, was put on hold, it was reported.

大學(xué)畢業(yè)后，她擔(dān)任了許多攝影展的負(fù)責(zé)人，之后2008年在她父母創(chuàng)辦的公司派對(duì)行頭擔(dān)任攝影師。據(jù)報(bào)道，凱特原定于當(dāng)年舉辦的一次個(gè)人攝影展推遲。

Photographs taken during a 2012 trip to Borneo, with Prince William, were published on the couple's website.

2012年與威廉王子去婆羅洲旅行時(shí)拍攝的照片發(fā)布在他們夫婦倆的網(wǎng)站上。

They included a shot of a misty Mount Kinabalu - the highest point in Borneo at 13,400ft above sea level - and a black-and-white image of an orangutan.

這些照片拍攝了云霧繚繞的基納巴盧山——婆羅洲最高峰，海拔13400英尺——和黑猩猩的黑白照片。

They received praise from Royal photographer Hugo Rittson Thomas, who said Kate could have had a career in photography if circumstances had been different.

這些照片受到了皇家攝影師雨果•瑞特森•托馬斯的贊揚(yáng)，他說(shuō)，如果凱特沒(méi)有當(dāng)王妃，那她本來(lái)可以在攝影上有所作為。

But others commented it was further evidence of the couple's attempts to carefully control all aspects of their public life.

但是其他人則認(rèn)為，這進(jìn)一步證明這對(duì)夫婦在小心謹(jǐn)慎地打造自己的公眾形象。
