Experience Excellence
Welcome To
GR Mani Studio was started in the year 1920 by Late Mr.G.Rajamani, an artist who was deemed to be a photographer. The studio is a landmark in the city. In fact, the Madurai Corporation renamed the Annamalai Chetty Lane, where the original studio stood as GR Mani Studio Lane in 1999. Today, it stands a few shops away on the same street.
GR Mani Studio is a warm and welcoming space, located in a charming part of town, attracting clients who appreciate the artistry and craftsmanship of traditional photography.

One of the traditional studio in Madurai (more than 💯 years). They are highly keen in meeting the customer expectations and most probably they done their best work! The edits were really good and they are patiently listen to the customer needs. Only thing is, they don’t offer you the softcopy of both raw and edited images but I know it’s their ethics.
On this earth nobody can freeze any moments but you, the photographers, are doing those beautiful moments. The way you wait patiently for freezing that precious moment will be that good and to be mentioned here — other than any crew, you people will be more user-friendly towards your clients. I especially need to mention that the way you engage in your work shows how passionate you are about it. We can do any work, but the passion speaks a lot. You are really flexible towards us during those editing sessions, and we are really happy with those edits. Keep going, man — expecting a lot from you.
