Catherine, known for her keen interest in photography, took the pictures of her daughter last month at Anmer Hall, the family's residence in Norfolk, the palace tweeted.
In one of the pictures, the princess -- who turns 1 on Monday -- is shown walking assisted by a baby walker filled with blocks.
In another, she stands holding on to a chair with a blue bow in her hair.
