    From www.thediamondjubilee.org/queens-life-introduction "The Queen was born Princess Elizabeth of York at 2.40am on 21 April 1926 at 17 Bruton Street, Mayfair, London. .... The Princess was christened Elizabeth Alexandra Mary in the private chapel at Buckingham Palace. She was named after her mother, while her two middle names are those of her paternal great-grandmother, Queen Alexandra, and paternal grandmother, Queen Mary." And www.royalcollection.org.uk/eGallery/object.asp?exhibition... shows the same picture, dates the christening as May 29, 1926, and describes everyone. Mary Elphinstone and Princess Mary were godmothers as well as aunts.

    According to the Royal Collection copy, the photographer was Vandyk (father or son) who conveniently had a studio just down Buckingham Palace Road. From www.npg.org.uk/collections/about/photographs-collection/p... "Photographic studio founded by Carl Vandyk (1851-1931). From 1881 to 1913 Vandyk Ltd. were based at 125 Gloucester Road and from 1901 to 1947 they had their premises at several addresses in Buckingham Palace Road. Carl Vandyk was succeeded by his son Herbert Vandyk (1880-1943)"
