The official photos of Prince William and fiancee` Katherine Middleton released

Two official photographs of Prince William together with Kate Middleton have been released to mark the couple's engagement.

The two portraits - one formal, the other informal - were taken by celebrity photographer Mario Testino just days after their engagement was announced. Testino, a favourite with Royals including the late Diana, Princess of Wales, has described how happy he found the couple to be.

"I am very happy to have been asked to cover this historic moment that the whole world was waiting for," he said. "They are in their prime and brimming with happiness - I have never felt so much joy as when I see them together."

The photographs - both taken at St James' Palace - show the two sides of the soon-to-wed future King and Queen.

The formal shot, taken against a backdrop of paintings of former monarchs in the Palace's Council Chamber, sees the couple in a half-embrace. The Prince's fiancee rests her hand on her husband-to-be's arm, showing off her engagement ring, which once belonged to William's mother, Diana.

The sapphire is given maximum exposure in the relaxed pose too, taken in the Palace's Cornwall room. Clearly at ease, heads touching, a casually dressed Prince William envelopes his future bride in his arms - while her hand rests on his chest.

It is a photo which will become one of the iconic images of the 21 century, chosen from several sent to Clarence house by the famous photographer.
