Former Los Angeles Times photographer George Fry shot the exclusive images of Elvis and Priscilla after one of his sources tipped him off: Elvis and Priscilla were in Santa Monica court. Fry walked up to the arriving Elvis and Priscilla, introduced himself as a photographer for the L.A. Times. They agreed to photos after the divorce-court hearing. When done in court, the Presleys came down the hallway “smiling and smooching,” Fry said.” They were still great friends.” “I shot 15 to 16 frames and had an exclusive,” Fry said. " I’m the only guy to shoot this. No paparazzi anywhere.” Fry used a Rolleiflex with 55mm lens and exposed 220 black-and-white film.
