Photos of one's wedding or engagement should show the unique personalities of the couple along with the bond they share together, reports JamesBennett.com.au

Newcastle, New South Wales -- (SBWire) -- 07/27/2015 --Australia recorded a record number of marriages in 2012, with 123,244 marriages taking place during the calendar year. Many assume the wedding is a one day celebration, yet it actually signifies years of celebration yet to come, as the couple makes their way through life hand in hand. The wedding needs to symbolize the commitment the couple is making and the right photographer captures the beginning of this journey in a remarkable way. James Bennett Photography (http://jamesbennett.com.au) continues to capture these special moments for couples across the globe.

"Weddings are a once in a lifetime event, one that should be memorialized in a way that the couple can look back fondly on for years to come. Any photographer can take decent photos, yet these photos may not capture the bond between the two partners.The Australian Securities & Investments Commission reports the average couple spends $3,983 on photography, more than on the ceremony, entertainment, flowers and decorations. One should get pictures that clearly demonstrate the personalities of the couple being married and their special connection," James Young, the spokesperson for James Bennett Photography, explains.

The wedding photographer needs to capture the story of the special couple in pictures. Anything less and he or she hasn't done their job. This may involve taking the couple to locations that are special to them or it may simply be ensuring special moments throughout the ceremony aren't overlooked. Every couple is different, therefore every wedding photo album needs to be unique.

"Some photographers focus on capturing specific photos, ones that are commonly seen in wedding portraits. This may include the cutting of the cake, the first kiss and the tossing of the bouquet. As every couple has these moments, they don't help to set the happy couple apart. Our job is to find those moments that are unique to the couple and make sure they are captured on film. This is what differentiates a great photographer from a good one," Young continues.

Wedding photography goes much further than the big day, and couples need to remember this when making their selection. One needs engagement photos to share their news with others, and one should never settle for standard studio photos in this situation. The engagement photos need to be as special as the wedding ones.

"James Bennett Photography works with the couple to find the right setting and mood for these photos. As with wedding photos, engagement photos should clearly demonstrate what makes the couple and their bond unique. Regardless of when one chooses to work with our company, whether it be for engagement photos, wedding pictures or a personal event, this is exactly what each client receives," Young declares.
