In another era, it would have been seen as undignified. But in the newly populist royal family, everyone seems to be getting in on the act.
After Prince Charles and the Queen set the trend by agreeing to pose for mobile phone photos with members of the public, Prince William has joined in.
And this time it was the royal who actually took the picture.
William, 31, photographed himself with Madison Lambe, 12, on her phone – because she was too nervous to press the button.
The Duke of Cambridge took the snap after she visited the Sandringham Estate on Christmas Day to watch the Royal family walk from their house to church.
Madison is now the most envied pupil at her school after posting the image of herself standing with the future king on Facebook.
She said: 'I couldn't believe it when William came over to me and I asked for a picture. He just said to me 'you can't beat a good selfie on Christmas Day' and took the picture.
'It was really good, I didn't expect it.
'He was really nice and I was so excited. I've put the picture on Facebook. My friends think it is really good and they have been commenting on it.'
It was reported that Madison Lambe was too stunned to press the buttons herself so Prince William took the snap.
