It's no secret that the camera loves Queen Camilla. From her stunning shots at Salisbury Cathedral to her mesmerizing portrait in Swindon, she's proven to be one of the most photogenic royals in the family. And now, royal enthusiasts are getting treated to yet another standout photo of Her Majesty.

The 76-year-old queen paid a visit to Christ Church C of E Primary School in London, and afterward, the royal family posted a striking photo of Queen Camilla posing with dozens of students around her on Instagram. The caption says, "As an avid reader, The Queen was encouraged to hear about all of the reading initiatives taking place at Christ Church C of E Primary School, London. Her Majesty was also shown a mosaic of His Majesty The King, created by the school’s pupils to celebrate the Coronation, before sitting in on a school assembly to hear about some of their favorite books."

In the first pic, the queen is seated while several children, all with their hands raised, surround her. And for the occasion, she wore a flattering floral dress with white piping by Fiona Clare. One fan commented, "Fabulous photo! The children loved our queen and she loved being there." Another added, "So important to encourage and promote reading and literacy from and early age. Thank you, Your Majesty."

The post also includes a pic of Her Majesty observing a mosaic of King Charles, and a close-up of the queen chatting with two students about their favorite books.

During her visit, Queen Camilla learned about the school’s ‘Shepherd and Sheep’ reading initiative, where new students are paired up with Year 6 students, who act as "shepherds" or role models throughout the new pupil's first year at school.

Additionally, the queen sat in on a Year 4 class and participated in a felt-making workshop with the children.

A photogenic queen who actively promotes literacy? I love to see it.
