Where do I even begin... First of all I would like to emphasize the fact that Chadi is such a positive, bright, enthusiastic person. His positive vibes surround you from the first moment he arrives and continues till the last moment of the photo shoot. He made sure we feel comfortable, relaxed and enjoy each moment. He is very caring, attentive, vibrant and organized. Chadi made our special day absolutely stress free and positive with his beautiful etiquette to work. Chadi knows exactly what to do and when do it. When I was getting ready, it was raining outside and I was so upset, however Chadi surrounded me with such positive energy and ensured that it will stop raining soon and we will do our photo shoot as planned. He calmed me down when things went crazy and made sure I got what I needed or wanted. Then, another crazy situation which Chadi handled with such professionalism. My veil came out form it's comb at the middle of Dumbo and of course I was so upset, but Chadi went above and beyond in order to find hair clips( which he did after running around for 20 minutes). Additionally, he fixed my veil with such care and enthusiasm and I was just amazed of how caring he is for his couples. He even had a cold water for us and it was such a hot day. Through the whole day, he made sure my dress is fixed, it's laying on the floor nicely and it's looking perfect in the photos. He did not let anyone to do it ,but just himself. Such a caring and genuine person!!! Now about the photos!!! We just love love love our photos!!! He took some epic photos of us that we just admire every single day. He caught very beautiful, vivid, natural and happy moments. He chose absolutely amazing locations for us which played a huge role in the outcome. Chadi captured our photos from such perfect angles and provided higher level of creativity by also paying attention to so many details. The details he captured are just everything.... I kept staring at some of the pictures and just admiring it non stop. The photos are so good that it's so hard to pick which one is the best!!! The gallery was ready within 2 weeks and we were so happy to be able to see our photos that early. After reviewing our gallery, we had small requests in regards of some photos. Chadi was very responsive and very patient. He never showed any sign of frustration, but the willingness to help and make sure we are happy. We highly recommended Chadi to our friends, families and anyone for a wedding photo shoot. Believe me you won't regret it and will thank me later. read more

If you're considering whether you should hire Shadi for your special event, I'd say you'd be making a huge mistake not to hire him, especially if your event is super special such as a wedding. Shadi is one of the most talented photographers out there. We hired Shadi for our wedding that took place in Feb 2020 and we couldn't be happier with his work or his personality. During our wedding day, he's done an amazing job from two aspects: 1. He has a great vision and timing of how, what and when to shoot. He helped set up the scene to capture some of the most incredible pictures that we'll carry with us for the rest of our lives. He captured our photos from the best angles and conveyed a high level of creativity and attention to details. The photos speak very loudly for his talent. Please see his gallery to get a sense of his amazing work. 2. This is the part that we didn't expect and was just as important as the photos themselves. Shadi actually helped coordinate the day and ensure that my beautiful bride was happy all the time. He doesn't wait for you to tell him what to do, he knows exactly what to do. If you're like us and you're marrying for the first time (and hopefully the last ), you may not know all the small details of when to take the photos, what setups to have, etc. and Shadi brings his expertise to your special day along with his great attitude and smile that he always keeps on. My wife told me that when she was getting ready at her house Shadi made sure she always got what she wanted or needed. He calmed her down when things got crazy and ensured that she was always happy. To me, that alone is beyond amazing! After the wedding Shadi demonstrated an incredible level of professionalism. He has a very quick turn around for our wedding photos. We received them within a couple of weeks from the wedding. I, being myself, had multiple requests after the wedding regarding certain photos and Shadi always responded promptly and never displayed any hint of frustration. He was super patient with me and delivered on all my requests. I cannot be more grateful to Shadi for contributing to our wedding in such an amazing and memorable way. I'll say it once more, if you do not hire Shadi you're doing a huge mistake! read more

Chadi Mansi ... what can we say? Chadi came as a recommendation as someone who provides excellent quality and service. After a few emails back and forth with him we arranged to have a video call. The video call was meant to introduce ourselves and get acquainted with MansiStudios's services. My then fiancé - now husband - and I had a discussion with Chadi, and everything sounded agreeable. We then decided to all meet face-to-face over coffee to discuss the ideas and theme of our wedding and how the pictures were meant to convey that mood and vibe. We found Chadi not only to be open-minded, but consultative, professional, and inspired. You could tell that this was not just a "job" for him, but it was an opportunity to help create and capture a moment that would last a lifetime. Honestly, after meeting him we were without worry regarding our photos and we were already pleased with our choice. But then COVID-19 happened, and that pretty much laid waste to all the well-laid plans we had regarding our ceremony. My fiancé and I, being the headstrong people we are, were not about to let a little thing like the end of civilization as we know it stop us, and proceeded to get married on the date we had set. However, our venue, large guest count, food and beverage - even our officiant - were all scrapped, and we created a small intimate ceremony on the fly. One vendor we knew we would keep was Chadi and MansiStudios. Chadi worked with us within twelve hours of our wedding date to craft an idea and plan for the day. That plan was excellent and well executed. From the First Look, the Ceremony, pictures at the hotel, to Grand Central & Times Square and all the moments in between, Chadi captured an essence of grandeur, royalty, timelessness and iconic New York mixed with the intimacy that we covet. We've posted a few of our pics since the wedding and all of our friends and family say we have the best wedding pictures that they have ever seen - and they are a discerning crowd. I write all this to say that Chadi Mansi was everything you could ask for - professional, open, extremely pleasant, and flexible - and he takes damn good photos. We'd definitely recommend him to anyone. read more

I can't even begin to find the words to describe our amazing experience with Chadi. Chadi worked with us on our wedding day for 12 hours from the early moments of the morning to the special sparks through the night. Planning your own wedding is a very stressful experience and there will be a lot of details you might miss, Chadi will not miss any details and he will help you plan your wedding date, plus his main focus is to make sure that his bride is happy and comfortable all the time. At one point my vail slipped and Chadi immediately jumped in and adjusted it and pinned it back into my hair! He has a personality that lifts everyone around him up and can make even the most camera shy enjoy their time and be excited to take part and be in the photos. From the simple aspect of fun to the livelihood of the up-beat energy you want on your wedding day, his flexibility and ability to organize a wedding timeline shows how greatly talented and incredibly responsible he is. Aside from being such a talented individual he is also very detail oriented, professional, friendly and works with you in any way you want him to. He is very precise in his work and delivers in a timely manner. We would highly recommend him to all our friends and would want to work with him again! You can tell he is very dedicated and passionate at what he does. Chadi has great vision and great timing when it comes to capturing the perfect moments. I got so many calls and messages the next day asking about him. Thank you so much for our beautiful wedding photos. The emotion you've captured throughout is so raw and brilliant and the photos tell the story of our day perfectly. We will forever be grateful you were available to photograph our special day. We are so happy with them and have already looked through them probably 10 times already! P.S. Future brides if you would like to forget about your stress, Chadi is the go-to person. Trust me if you do not hire Chadi you're making a huge mistake! Your wedding day will miss his hat! read more

Our experience with MansiStudios has been nothing less than enjoyable! Chadi's professionalism and flexibility during our wedding day made it pass by smoothly under no pressure. Chadi's team and himself were able to capture the best moment of our big day without interrupting anyone's way and with minimal directions which made the guests and ourselves very satisfied and comfortable, we almost didn't feel it! MansiStudios have left a really good impression on us prior to our wedding through being responsive and well organized. Chadi as a person is such a fun guy, he would go above and beyond to make sure he knows what I wanted exactly. He would listen to every detail I tell him and planning my wedding schedule with him was nothing but fun. His ideas and modifications from his experience with similar wedding really helped us come up with the best plan for that day. Also want to mention how Chadi's Timeline Template was a vital key in organizing our day and keeping all vendors on the same page as the day proceeded. When the wedding photos came out, we were obsessed with how perfect everything was caught with Chadi's camera! Chadi was able to capture nice portraits of the wedding guests and we received many compliments for the quality, color and spirit of the photos. Everyone was delighted with Chadi's presence for 12 hours wedding day. Photos were delivered to us very professionally via a link to where all the high res pictures are. Pictures are very easy to access, download, upload directly on different social media platforms, and even to share them with friends & family. We highly recommend MansiStudios lead by the amazing professional Chadi. If you have upcoming events in the future and looking for an unforgettable experience with right moments captured, definitely go with Chadi and trust us you won't regret it! read more

I'm pretty sure there aren't enough words to describe how amazing Chadi is. I found Chadi while I was looking through a bridal editorial about one of the last couples to get married in NYC before everything shutdown. I remember. Falling in love with how beautiful and clean and modern the photos were. I immediately sent him an email and began praying that he would be available on our wedding date of July 5th. After I sent my email off Chadi had a tagline that his response time was faster than Amazon next day service....and I must attest that it is true. He sent me an email and we jumped on a consultation call. After our call I felt like I had known Chadi forever and we were sold. We had already taken engagement photos with another vendor which we hated (lol) so we chose the package that would give us the opportunity at a redo. I can't explain how perfect the experience was. Chadi was so attentive and he had so many ideas and we shot for hours. When we got our engagement photos back we just knew our wedding date would be perfect and that it was. Chadi and his team were absolutely superb on the day of our wedding. There was someone to follow me the bride, someone for my husband to be and another photographer capturing family portraits. Chadi is also the life of the party so don't be surprised if your guest invite him to partake in the fun. I 100% recommend Chadi if you are looking for quality photos, a caring photographer, and team and someone who wants your day to be as perfect as you do. read more

Absolutely perfect. Chadi has worked with us for over two years from our engagement to the wedding. Behind the camera lenses, craft, and skill is a really passionate artist who genuinely takes pride in giving others a smile. He goes above and beyond for every shot he takes, yet is always staying cool and collected. Along with really top-notch angles, shots, and editing, Chadi is also very approachable and was active with solid communication. Purposeful in his planning, Chadi gave a lot of useful guidance and tips leading up to our events and adapted well to changing circumstances. Chadi was even noticeably punctual (he and his team arrived much earlier than scheduled on the wedding day) and well-dressed for our occasions--fedora and everything! He is kind and soft-spoken, yet these gestures made himself a beloved fixture at our events because they conveyed a lot of class and respect toward us and our guests. He keeps things both organized and fun at the same time. When things got difficult and time-restrained due to outside issues, he kept us going with his positivity and vision. His attitude genuinely impacted us and led to our wedding being the most amazing day of our lives. Chadi is an expert at what he does and, from first impression until now, he has always been a considerate, humble, and personable professional to work with. Thank you, Chadi, for everything. We are eternally thankful for all of your incredible contributions to our blessed union! read more

Chadi is an absolute master of his craft, and we cannot sing his praises enough! From our very first conversation, it was clear that he was deeply committed to making our wedding day as perfect as possible. Chadi's dedication to our happiness was evident in every step of the process, and working with him was an absolute joy. On the day of our wedding, Chadi's presence was a true gift. He has an incredible ability to make everyone around him feel completely at ease. This natural comfort translated into the most stunning, authentic photos--each one brimming with the joy and love of the day. His artistic eye is unmatched, capturing not just moments, but the essence of our celebration in a way that took our breath away. Chadi's creativity knows no bounds, and his attention to detail is extraordinary. He somehow managed to be everywhere at once, capturing every important moment without ever being intrusive. And to top it all off, he was astonishingly fast in delivering our photos--we were already looking through them during our honeymoon, and we haven't been able to stop since! If you want a wedding photographer who is not only exceptionally talented but also genuinely cares about making your day unforgettable, look no further than Chadi. He exceeded every expectation and left us with memories we will cherish forever. read more

A combination you won't find anywhere else. When my husband and I decided to tie the knot, we had to figure out a ton of things. Along with these things is of course finding a photographer. Unfortunately this process is very confusing since there are a ton of photographers in the tri-state area. The photographer really captures your wedding moments, and these pictures last for a lifetime. After talking to many photographers, there was one that really caught our eye and that was Chadi Mansi. His nature is extremely friendly and as soon as we met him, it felt like we knew him for years. In every photo session that we had he was so friendly along with his team and they made us feel right at home. Along with this, his work his extraordinary and exceptional. The quality and the poses were absolutely perfect. The pictures were so excellent, we couldn't decide which one was the best, but that really shows that his work speaks volumes. Our wedding day went by so fast we weren't able to take it all in, however , after seeing the pictures that Mansi took, we were blown away. He captured the most precious moments. All in all, Mansi's work along with his personality and professionalism is excellent and I would heartily recommend him to anyone looking for a wedding photographer. read more

1- What was most important to you with your proposal photo/video? Chadi and Moe are a fantastic team! I wanted to propose to my girlfriend and they knew exactly what to do and told me not to worry about a thing and that's exactly how easy it was. 2-What were your biggest concerns about proposal photo/video? It's stressful dealing with a proposal and you need a photo/video team that is experienced and knows lighting. Considering it was outdoors and unpredictable lighting...Chadi knew exactly how to get the best shots and positioning. 3- Why did you pick our services? Initially because it was based on my location for my proposal, but I just have contacted 6 different photographers before choosing Chadi. He has experience in these types of shoots and has an understanding of what needs to be done to make it a surprise and flawless. 4- How was the experience for you with our services? I think Chadi was great to work with because he's young, cool and fun! Made posing for our post proposal shoot that much more fun! 5- Any advice for others considering proposing? Hire Chadi. You won't be disappointed in the service or quality of deliverables! read more

Chadi is an absolutely phenomenal photographer! From our engagement shoot to our wedding day, he captured the most beautiful, timeless photos that we will treasure forever. He has a true gift for making you feel comfortable and natural in front of the camera, helping us pose in ways that felt effortless and authentic. On our wedding day, Chadi went above and beyond to ensure everything ran smoothly. He wasn't just our photographer--he helped facilitate the day and made sure we stayed focused on enjoying every moment. He constantly checked in with us, which made us feel so cared for. Beyond his talent and professionalism, Chadi is personable, kind, and has such a calming presence. His team was equally amazing, and they all worked seamlessly to make the experience unforgettable. We couldn't be happier with Chadi and his incredible work. Highly recommend him to anyone looking for stunning photography and an outstanding experience! read more

My wife and I could not speak more highly of Chadi. Not only is his work incredibly great, but the level of service and attention he gives to each of his clients is second to none. We truly felt Chadi was our friend that day more than just a hired vendor. We had him not only for our wedding but also our engagement, both of which gave us incredible captured moments and a ton of good laughs. Chadi has a special talent of making a very stressful day go incredibly smooth through his lightheartedness, joking, and constant communication. He started on our special day months in advance, asking us our vision for the day and carefully planning a schedule to make sure that vision was achieved. We are so greatly appreciative of Chadi and his team for making our day so special and going above and beyond to making us and our families at ease on a day that has so many moving parts. We could not recommend him and his team highly enough! read more

Where do I begin....Chadi has been the absolute best to work with throughout this entire period. From the moment we booked with Chadi, he has consistently been professional, responsive, and always so incredibly kind. Chadi has helped us outline our entire wedding day, from the moment we wake up to the cake cutting (with his handy timeline sheet, thank God for that!) he was always one step ahead, and was able to deal with our very large bridal party (we were 26 total so I'm sure you can imagine how crazy the day was). Staying calm and collected the entire time, Chadi was able to make the atmosphere fun and easy going, while killing every shot he took. I recommend Chadi to every couple I encounter planning their wedding, not only for his amazing talent, but just how genuine of a person he is. We were so glad with our decision in choosing him as a vendor, and even more glad we made a new friend! You won't regret picking Chadi :) read more

Friendly, Professional, Reliable, and Versatile My now-fiance and I could not be more satisfied with our experience! Chadi was immensely helpful in the coordination of my surprise proposal. I provided the location (Planting Fields Arboretum), and he selected a specific, scenic, secluded spot that was to my liking. The day of, some stressful scheduling changes had me request that Chadi be there 30 minutes before the original time, and he was able to accommodate! During the proposal itself, Chadi captured the scene perfectly. After, we spent the hour having a fun and casual photo shoot that proved to be the source of many more beautiful images. Upon receiving the photos online, we knew that Chadi tastefully edits his work to highlight the essence of each photo without taking away from it. I highly recommend Chadi if you want to be confident in your photography experience; we are now considering him for our wedding! read more

Chadi and Mo were incredible! My newly appointed husband and I had a small wedding ceremony in Central Park 10 days ago. I had a couple of conversations with Chadi in the lead up, and he was very responsive and wanted to get my input on the style of photos that I like. From there, I've never worked with such a professional photographer who just knew what he was doing! My husband and I felt 1000% at ease working with Chadi and Mo. We started with a photoshoot around Central Park, and made our way over to the Ladies Pavilion, where the ceremony was held. Chadi and Mo captured all the emotions throughout the day and the photos were released very fast after a couple of days. They were so beautiful and natural! Family and friends who were unable to make the day have all commented on how they felt they were there, after seeing the photos. My husband and I could not recommend Chadi and Mo highly enough! read more

We got married almost 2 month ago and picking Chadi photography is one of the best decisions we did. Chadi and his whole team are wonderful. They aren't just extremely talented but they are extremely detail oriented. They care about their clients and they make sure to give you the best experience possible. My wedding photos are a dream. They are exactly what I wanted and more. Chadi works with you the minute you book him. He recommends vendors, creates inspiration boards, works thru your timeline and creates a shot list. He was always available thru text to answer any questions we might have. And he was more than willing to set up calls with us to make sure he truly understood my vision. Wouldn't have dreamed of a better wedding experience or a better wedding gallery. It is truly the wedding pictures of my DREAMS! read more

My wife and I first met Chadi at my sister-in-law's wedding where he was the photographer. We were immediately impressed by how professional, approachable, and calm he was, especially amidst the chaos of missing bridesmaids and screaming children. When it came time for our own wedding, we didn't hesitate at all to hire Chadi and he was one of the first vendors we booked. During the planning process, Chadi was communicative and asked us targeted questions about our venue, schedule, and desired shots. Day of, Chadi had a clear plan and creative vision but at the same time was clearly flexible and experienced to adapt to the inevitable wrenches that get thrown in the works. Thanks for being a professional but also a refreshingly calm and creative human being, Chadi, we really appreciate you! read more

We couldn't have imagined a better vendor than Chadi and Mohamed!! Through Covid and planning our wedding twice, Chadi was extremely flexible and considerate. Best part was he was even more amazing when we met him for our engagement shoot. He got us to be comfortable in front of the camera, he captured pictures that we couldn't have even dreamt of. We would've never thought we would enjoy being infront of a camera for hours for our shoot and for our wedding. The day of our wedding Chadi played our favorite music and made the experience so fun, comfortable and most importantly natural and spontaneous. His amazing communication skills even continued after our wedding. We would absolutely recommend Chadi and Mohamed for any and every wedding read more

Chadi was a wonderful photographer to work with!! He put up with me messaging him every couple of days with ideas of what I wanted. The wedding was planned really quickly and he was so understanding and quick to help out when there was a possible date change too. The pictures came out beyond gorgeous! And my family loved them 10000000% recommend him - you definitely want someone who will listen to what you want in pictures but also direct you and give you several tips through the day and before, and Chadi was that person Every single moment - the important, candid, posed, the ones that I didn't even know I needed - everything was captured. And the delivery time of the photos was unbeatable! Cannot wait to work with him again! read more
