Chris originally hails from New Zealand, so in case you were wondering he’s the Kiwi I mentioned in the title, and Helen – clearly – is the knock-out bombshell (both descriptions courtesy of Pete Barnes, lovely guy and great wedding photographer)!
Helen and Chris’s sparkling white wedding day
Simple, sparkling diamond wedding jewellery – understated and beautiful.Helen’s wedding dress has a lot of detail so delicate jewellery is the perfect way to accessorise. (More advice about finding the perfect jewellery to match your dress)
What a great couple – this says it all, doesn’t it? As happy a wedding photo as I’ve ever seen! This is a really lovely moment and makes me smile right back!
The most beautiful bride… Helen looks amazing – she could be on the cover of a top wedding magazine. I love the romance that connects these two – they’re so in love and it shows in every picture.
Helen’s wedding dress is soooo pretty – beautiful embroidery and crystal details, so tiny and delicate, then those sheer layers, oh so feminine and lovely.
Helen is a primary school teacher, and I learned from Pete Barnes’s wedding photography blog that one of her pupils had come to see her get married, along with her mum! I think that’s so lovely – and she must be a brilliant teacher to inspire such loyalty!
Chris looks great with his grey suit and all white tie and buttonhole – it’s a great look for grooms: understated and stylish.
Three lovely bridesmaids in white – and they look great in the shorter dresses. I love this photo too – with the palest grey sky in the background it’s really apt for the whole wedding theme!
There are times when your
wedding photographer will see an opportunity for a stunning photograph like these. Helen’s confidence and ease with the camera shines through and I’m sure she’ll adore these images: different, graceful and really, really beautiful.

Gypsophila is so tiny and delicate, but with so many little flowers it makes a real statement in a white wedding theme. It’s also known as baby’s breath or ‘gyp’.
Sorry – these exquisite little white wedding cupcakes really do look too good to eat! (even for me)
Kiwi fruit… or, “how to make 100 people smile when they walk into a room”
Cute or what?
A stunning white wedding bouquet tinged with green foliage – this is (I think) gypsophila with white lisianthus. Small and perfectly formed… perfect for your white wedding theme!
