As Prince George celebrates his 12th birthday on July 22, it’s the perfect time to stroll down memory lane and revisit the charming tradition that has captured hearts year after year — his official birthday photos.
Since his first birthday in 2014, the royal family has delighted the public with a photo to mark George’s special day, offering a rare and intimate glimpse of the future king growing up.
Let’s take a look at how Prince George has grown, one birthday photo at a time.
2014: Turning One
Prince George’s first birthday was marked with an adorable set of photos taken at London’s Natural History Museum during a visit to the Sensational Butterflies exhibition. Dressed in cute blue pinstriped dungarees, George was seen exploring — wide-eyed and curious — while mom and dad, William and Kate, looked on proudly. A true toddler milestone, captured with charm.
2015: Now a Big Brother
With the arrival of Princess Charlotte just months earlier, George entered his second year as a sibling. His birthday photo, taken by Mario Testino after Charlotte’s christening, showed him beaming in a crisp white shirt with red piping, perched happily in his father’s arms. It was the perfect mix of formal and joyful.
2016: A Day Outdoors in Norfolk
For his third birthday, Prince George was photographed at the family’s countryside home, Anmer Hall. A relaxed setting allowed for genuine moments — one with George giggling on a wooden swing, and another with the family dog, Lupo. Photographer Matt Porteous beautifully captured the royal tot’s playful side.
2017: The Confident Four-Year-Old
George turned four with a simple, sunny portrait taken at Kensington Palace by Chris Jackson. Wearing a striped shirt and flashing a cheeky grin, he looked every bit the confident and growing young boy — with a hairstyle reminiscent of his dad, Prince William, at the same age.
