The snaps were taken by photographer Alexi Lubomirski earlier this week at Frogmore House, Windsor.
“Not only was it an incredible honour, but also an immense privilege to be invited to share and be a witness to this young couple’s love for each other,” Lubomirski wrote on Instagram. “I cannot help but smile when I look at the photos that we took.”
Harry and Markle announced their engagement on Nov. 27, with Clarence House sharing on Twitter that the prince had popped the question in London earlier in the month. The couple will wed on May 19, 2018, at St George’s Chapel in Windsor Castle.
Since the announcement, Markle has been taking part in several activities with the royal family, including the Queen’s private party for staffers at Windsor Castle last week as well as the Queen’s pre-Christmas lunch at Buckingham Palace on Wednesday.
