About Me

Behind The Lens
My Story

I’m Fadi, the lead photographer of Fadi Mawagdeh Photography, based in Toronto and New York. I'm an outgoing person with an outrageous personality to match. The way I talk, the humour I use when I engage with all of my couples… It’s authenticity in the purest form, and my work is a direct reflection of my self-expression. 

Mixing my personality with photography just seemed natural, so I make it a point to build a relationship with all of my couples. It's the only way you will feel confident and comfortable in front of the camera. Most wedding photographers are fine just being photographers

To me, that's not enough. 

When you work with me, you're working with someone who genuinely cares about capturing your wedding day the way you want. You're working with who will be with you every step of the way.
