The Candi Project was recommended to us by a good friend of mine who had seen their work on a co-worker's wedding. We checked out their website and instantly fell in love with the idea of having the highlight reels. Even after seeing many of their previous works, nothing could prepare us for how emotional we got when watching ours. They were great at stepping in to direct us when needed, but for the most part they just blended into all of the different parts of the day. Having this video to share with friends and family is priceless. We put it up on Facebook and the responses were overwhelming. Friends of friends said it made them cry and they don't even know us!!! Chris and Aenid have such a gift of capturing important, emotional, simple moments and editing them together to make them magical. They were professional, kind, and helpful throughout the entire process... I am not good at planning these types of things and they really helped me work out the details of the day which made all the other planning much more manageable. I will recommend them to anyone and everyone that I know planning an important occasion! Thank you Candi Project for being so amazing at what you do! http://thecandiproject.com/rysa-michaels-wedding-penthouse-808/ read more

Words can't express how amazing Chris and Aenid are! I had decided pretty last minute that I HAD to have a videographer for our wedding (about a month prior!) - which lead to sleepless nights watching demo videos online and trying to find a videographer who created beautiful wedding highlights, was within our budget, and was still available for our wedding day! All of which The Candi Project met, much to our joy!!! Chris and Aenid are AMAZING to work with. They met with us about a week after I had reached out to them, and communicated with us to get all the info before our big day (which was only a few weeks away at that point!). The day of the wedding, they went to my now husband's place first to capture him getting ready and were infinitely patient when he was very late in coming back home from picking up his best man! They then came to my place to capture me getting ready with my ladies, then rushed to the church to set up their cameras for the ceremony. It was AWESOME having the dual team and THREE different camera angles at our ceremony. And they were with us at the reception until like an hour before the party ended - which was almost 12 hours!!! They were also ridiculously fast with the editing - our wedding was on 10/5 and they sent us the link to our highlights video YESTERDAY - only 3 weeks!! I can't stop watching our video. Everyone has cried watching it. I would not hesitate in recommending The Candi Project for any of your video/photo needs. Chris and Aenid are AMAZING (and are super nice and sweet!!!), and we loved that they were there to capture our special day! read more

Hands down, Chris and Aenid is the most amazing and talented videographer ever!! When it comes to capturing beautiful videos, Chris is your guy. He just has a natural gift in creating an art-like videos in the most random and unexpected places and moments. We were blown away with our wedding highlight he did for us. We just got married on July 19th and were extremely surprised by how quickly and efficiently Chris and his team worked. Our friends and family were so impressed when I posted our wedding highlight on Facebook we are still getting many compliments today. Chris, thank you and to your wife Aenid so much for making our special day even more memorable with your amazing ability to capture our precious moments in your own artsy way. read more

Chris and Aenid!!! You don't deserve 5 stars; you deserve A LOT more!!! You guys are so courteous and professional!!! The entire day of the wedding I didn't even feel you guys around... You made me feel cool, calm, and collective throughout the day!!! Thank you ohhh sooo veryyy much for your amazing work!!!! I can't even describe how awesome you guys were!!! Keep up the amazing work!!! I would so highly recommend them to anyone!!! The photo booth that you guys also did was AWESOME!!! Our guests truly loved it and Karen (the attendant) was patient with everyone!!! Thank you for helping us make our wedding dreams come true and show it through the high quality video!!! Stephy + Juan read more

Words can't event express how happy and LUCKY I am to have booked Aenid and Chris as our videographers of our July 12th 2014 wedding. Perfection is how I can describe their work. My husband and I received our wedding "trailer" and it was simply breathtaking. They captured small moments that I wouldn't think were important, that made a big emotional impact in the video! I am truly amazed at how quick the turnaround time was. I received my entire package within three months after my wedding! can you believe??? They are truly gifted and I STRONGLY recommend them to anyone who is looking for professional and talented videographers. Thank you so much Aenid and Chris for creating a master piece :) Love Eric and Nathaly read more

Chris & Aenid went above and beyond our expectations. After sifting through so many wedding videos, we just loved their style. Their storytelling truly sets them apart - it isn't formulaic - instead, they cater the videos to the couple's personalities and the overall vibe of the wedding. I would highly recommend them for any videography needs you may have. They were professional, worked with all of our requests and did an overall terrific job. We know our video will be timeless - we'll be able to watch it decades from now and still enjoy all of the little details. Stop searching for anyone else, and book The Candi Project - you won't regret it!! read more

We are so happy to have found The Candi Project as our videographers and that we were their first NY clients. Looking for wedding videographers wasn't easy. We found a lot of vendors whose videos looked awfully corny or some that were good but just very overpriced. And then we came across The Candi Project and their videos blew us away; they were elegant, modern, fun, and captured big moments in such beautiful way. Luckily for us Candi just moved to New York and we were able to book them. Aenid and Chris are amazing at what they do and understand the importance of their work. The video they made for us exceeded our expectations and we are super happy to have such a beautiful souvenir to watch in years to come. Aenid and Chris are both very sweet, friendly, professional, prepared, organized and very easy to work with. They made us feel at easy and throughout our entire wedding day (prep, church and reception) which is really important. In the weeks before our wedding they were very proactive in communicating with us, very responsive to our ideas and expectations and also explained various aspects of video making to us which was great because it helped us be on the same page and have reasonable expectations (video making is not something we know lots about so it's good to get certain things explained such as when real audio can be used and when it cannot etc). The cool thing about Candi is that we barely noticed them around us throughout the entire day but yet they managed to capture all the moments we wanted! Their hard work and creativity really shines in their videos. We are very happy to have found the Candi Project and recommend them to everyone looking for creative people behind a camera and a modern and elegant wedding video. Thank you guys! read more

INCREDIBLE. Everything about the Candi Project is absolutely incredible!!! Not only do they make the most beautiful films, but working with Chris and Aenid was so effortlessly easy and fun. They quickly became our favorite vendors. Leading up to the wedding, they were so patient with us and got to know my now-husband and I before our wedding day. They were extremely responsive, professional, caring, and thoughtful. And we absolutely loved having them there on our wedding day- getting ready and taking pictures can be a little bit stressful and Chris and Aenid's grounding, calming nature was just what I needed - they made me feel so at ease. And best of all, the highlight and feature film they made was absolutely STUNNING. We have watched 100s of times already. I am so happy to have this day so beautifully captured and to be able to hold on to the memories forever. After sharing the film, people were BLOWN AWAY by there artistry and talent....I can't even count the amount of people who said it was the best video they've ever seen. We are so unbelievably thankful for Chris and Aenid! read more

Chris and Aenid are very professional but they put a lot of "heart" in their dealings with clients. They've a got a solid team of skill and talent. Our maternity photoshoot went really well and they gave us extra time for us to exhaust all creative poses that they and we could think of. They also make sure that they know your preferences and also provide their professional opinion about them. Because they're easy and fun to work with, we've had them take our photos for important family events. They deserve more than five stars! read more

I would give 10 stars if I could to Chris and Aenid. They're very professional to work with. Chris put a lot of extra effort on my wedding. They made it sure every detail is more than perfect. Having them as my videographer made my wedding a perfect day for me and my husband. I would reAlly recommend Candi Project to all the couples out there!!! read more

I just received my photo book for Chris and Aenid today! I literally was screaming on the front porch jumping up and down with excitement!!!! I am so happy and grateful that they were able to photograph my wedding and capture it so elegantly in a photo book. It was a pleasure working with them and I could not be any more pleased with the end product!!! I was a very nervous and high strung bride. Chris was so calm and accommodating while taking the pictures. I had a printed out list of at least 50 different combinations of family members I wanted photographed. When I saw the proofs I was so pleased and so excited but the photo book sent me over the top with excitement. It takes a very special and talented photographer to edit and present the pages this way. I have seen a lot of other wedding photo books and this is by far the most amazing I have ever seen! I would recommend Chris and Aenid to any couple that is planning a wedding!!!! read more

Honestly Chris and Aenid (The Candi Project) deserve more than 5 stars . I knew the moment that I saw one of their videos and stated crying that I had to have them on my special day. The ability they have to evoke such emotion and make you feel as if you are actually in the moment as it is happening - is priceless. They were beyond anything I could possibly dream of - I will now be able to relive the moment just as I felt it that day because of the way they filmed each and every moment and put it all together! Though I knew they were there, no one noticed them like other intrusive videographers! I trusted them wholeheartedly and they went above and beyond like it was nothing! You will not wonder whether they captured "this or that" - they get it all! I LOVE THEM and would use them again! JUST BECAUSE. Truly talented, patient, professional and insanely artistic! Best choice I ever made. read more

I'm sure you're reading this and wondering if all these five star reviews across the board are for real. They ARE! If having a video of your wedding is something you care even remotely about and they are still available for your date, book them immediately. Videographers are not always considered a must-have, like the photographer, but it's a really great way to commemorate the day. The video Chris and Aenid created for us was just perfect - it captured us and our story, which was exactly what we wanted, was more than reasonable in pricing, and they were just 5-star in every way: their demeanor, responsiveness, the process, and even the turnaround time - we were actually surprised to see the video as early as we did. What we most appreciated is that they were really focused on creating a superior end product; everything else was secondary to making sure that happened (and of course, to making sure we were happy throughout). With a lot of other wedding vendors you can get bogged down in all the details and it feels a little more nitpicky and about the money - for such and such amount of time you have to pay X, and if you go over in time, it will cost Y, etc. And having been through a wedding, I now know that you can predict NOTHING about that day, no matter how hard you try. But with Candi it's all about what will enable them to get the footage they need to create their exceptional videos. Working with them just felt so genuine; they truly care about your wedding and the final product really shows it in every way. Even the end video they provided had not only the wedding highlights reel (which was what we most wanted); they even edited portions from our wedding (ceremony, tea ceremony, reception, speeches) and set them to music, like mini chapters from a movie. I wasn't expecting to care much about anything other than the highlights video, but it's all so fun to watch! When we watch it we feel like the stars of a blockbuster romcom that got 90% on rotten tomatoes. :) read more

They did such a wonderful job with our wedding video! Chris and Aenid are so talented and captured our special day beautifully. They also did my cousin's wedding video and great. We definitely recommend them! read more

Five stars is simply not enough for the Candi Project. From start to finish, working with Chris and Aenid was a smooth and flawless experience. Putting aside their professionalism and willingness to work with us and our crazy wedding day schedule (read: FIVE different locations throughout Manhattan AND Westchester County), they are just awesome people, with amazing talent. Our wedding day was captured perfectly. I watch it at least once a day. I am still getting messages from family and friends that the our highlight reel is out of a dream, like a movie, that it brought them to tears. If you are on the fence regarding videography services for your wedding day - don't be. The Candi Project is one amazing vendor, and you will be able to relive the best moments of your best day ever in a beautiful way thanks to them. You are missing out if you don't book them. I found the Candi Project through a friend of mine who booked them for her wedding, and they were one of the first vendors I booked to ensure they were available for our date nearly a year later. They are the top top top top, the best! Thank you so much! read more

We could not have asked for a better videographers! This is the first vendor we picked and it was a hit! Chris and Aenid delivered the highlight video of our dream! It's emotional, warm and very personal! We love it and rewatching it brings us back to our wedding day! If you want to see true feelings and emotions in your video go with Aenid and Chris and you will not regret! We will be recommending them to all of our friends and family! read more

Confession... I've probably watched our highlight reel for our wedding over 100 times already but I can't get over how absolutely amazing it turned out. These guys are some of the most talented people I've ever met and this is just one example of how amazing they are. And I'm happy to shamelessly plug them! If you're considering whether you want a video or not for your special day... don't second guess it for another moment. DO IT! And as anyone whose seen our video can attest to, you will absolutely not be disappointed with this team! A million thank you's to Chris and Aenid for the video that will have us reliving our special day over and over again, for years to come. read more

We are so thankful to have found The Candi Project (Chris and Aenid) to film our wedding day. They are an incredible, talented duo and they were such a pleasure to work with every step of the way!! Not only did they capture every special moment of our day, they told our story in such a unique & beautiful way. I would be lying if i said I haven't watched our highlight film 100 times already!! Truly amazing work. I would HIGHLY recommend booking them if they are available! You will not regret it! :) read more

Chris & Aenid were above and beyond outstanding with their level of professionalism and care in producing a high quality product that reflected the highlights of our wedding day. On the day of, they were prompt, positive, and professional and in the weeks leading up to the wedding they filled us in with organized outlines of what they would be doing and made sure they would cover everything that we wanted (they did!). They were never once intrusive or in anyone's face during the evening. They truly blended in seamlessly at the reception. I would say their stealth level is definitely at a 10. It has been one month since our wedding and they have delivered all of the edited video products, which is such an impressive speed. I am actually blown away by how they did this. My husband and I could not be more pleased with how our videos turned out. Their cinematic rendering of our videos were at such a level of quality that I had multiple people tell me "I'd see that movie" after watching our wedding highlights. I would recommend them any day of the week. read more

I met with Chris and Aenid and asked them to film a star wars wedding that included a light saber show in the middle of the reception. They were happy to take on the challenge and excited to work with us. I'm so glad I choose them! The 5 minute highlight reel is a great way to show everyone what happened without sifting through hours of wedding footage. Their camera's are amazing and captured everything perfectly. Thank you for a great job! read more

The Candi Project (Chris and Aenid) were the best vendor we dealt with when planning our wedding. From the beginning, they were extremely professional, prompt, thoughtful and honest. They listened attentively and recalled details from our conversations that I had forgot I even shared. This made such a difference in the emotional content of our video because I felt that Chris and Aenid really took the time to get to know us and what mattered to us. For this reason, we will forever have a beautiful wedding video that focuses on all the people and moments that mean the most to us. I have yet to watch our video without my eyes welling with some tears, but in my opinion that puts the quality of the Candi Project's work far above 5 stars. I recommend The Candi Project without an ounce of reservation! They are fabulous! read more

I'm really not sure what there is left to say about Aenid and Chris that hasn't already been said! For starters they are two of the kindest, most professional, responsive, knowledgeable, and organized people I have ever met. They are honestly everything you hope for in a wedding vendor and more. At the beginning of our planning process, I didn't think that we needed a videographer. I loved our photographer and wanted to spend the money on phenomenal photography rather than video. When we ended up using The Candi Project (who we found through our photographer, Ina at IM Photo Studio), I realized I was dead wrong! They were BY FAR the best investment we made on our wedding day - though they were a bit of a splurge for us -The Candi Project was worth every penny and more. The video captured our day perfectly and they caught so many sweet moments in our day that were strung together seamlessly. I've watch our video too many times to count (and still tear up) and it was the only way I could share our day with those who couldn't make it. I wish I could marry my husband all over again just to see another 7 minutes through their lens. We are SO happy we decided to go with The Candi Project for our wedding day and highly recommend them - you will not be disappointed. read more

My husband and I happened to stumble upon one of Aenid and Chris' wedding reels from a previous wedding. We liked that their style was clean, professional and modern... and that they had an eye for catching small, special moments. We were their second Indian wedding so I was a bit anxious as I wasn't sure they would know which scenes to capture. The day of our wedding was hectic and to be honest, I barely saw them... they sort of blended in and weren't too obtrusive. This concerned me, but a few weeks later, Chris and Aenid sent us our highlight reel and we were both amazed and ecstatic at how well the reel came out. Even though we rarely spotted them filming us, they captured so many clips of our day and then they tied it beautifully together with amazing music. Both of them are very skilled and know what they are doing. I tried to give my advice before I saw our highlight video... but I soon learned, it's best to let them work their magic. They are a wonderful, friendly couple and amazing videographers and I would highly recommend them! Thank you Chris and Aenid for capturing our wedding so perfectly and giving us something we look forward to looking back on year after year! read more

When we were looking for a videographer, the search stopped once we came across The Candi Project. As I looked through the videos on their website, each one brought me to tears. It was such an easy decision and it was definitely a great one. Chris and Aenid perfectly captured all of the most important parts of the most important day of our lives. From getting ready to the ceremony to the reception, they were not invasive and never in the way. Our guests all said they didn't even notice they were there. If you have any question about the quality of work, all you need to do is watch the video highlights from their website. We received our 5-minute "highlights" film about 3 weeks after the wedding and the full-length film about 1 week after that. It was exactly what we were hoping for, a beautifully edited concise "documentary" of our day. The term "best wedding video ever" has been uttered on more than a few occasions and we now get to watch how our wedding video is the one that brings everyone to tears. We highly reccomend The Candi Project to anyone who wants the best video possible for their wedding day! read more
