The Daily Mail, of all papers, published a lengthy article about this shoot two days ago: https://www.dailymail.co.uk/femail/article-10383533/Who-Paolo-Roversi-trtendy-Italianphotographer-Kate-Middletons-stunning-portraits.html

There's a good deal of information about Roversi and his work on the internet.
