Outstanding!

Manny is an incredible professional and amazing at making people feel comfortable in front of the camera. His assistant Derek was also amazing and we really loved working with them. They both captured such special moments and we now have breathtaking photos to look back on. I absolutely recommend!

A full 5.0 rating must not be a thing, because Manny would definitely have it!

The day we first met Manny, I walked out of the office and told my fiance and wedding planner "that's it book him he's the one" and since this was the 3rd time I've said this (ok so I am a little impulsive and impatient), I was reminded to meet others so I can make a more informed choice. I let it sit for ONE night when we called our planner and said "Please cancel our next photographer meeting because Manny is really what we need." And boy were we right! My husband & are aren't exactly traditional. We love to laugh, make each other laugh, make others laugh & had a hard time with all the serious details that weddings often involve. At our engagement shoot, I surprised my fiance with a hotdog suit, and Manny executed it perfectly setting us up for a "practice first look". We all laughed hysterically & that was when I knew Manny was the perfect photographer for us. His personality is so laid back & informal (in a great way) that anytime we met it really felt like we were hanging with an old friend. He went along with any ridiculous idea we had, and would suggest one even cooler! His eye for background, lighting, detail and originality is amazing and his work truly speaks for itself. Let's face it, unless you're a VIP, you feel a little uncomfortable with a camera in your face for 8 hours but trust me when I say Manny made that so much easier for us. My husband & I are very much looking forward to working with Manny on future projects!

Manny did a friends wedding years ago and I knew I would want to use him, when the time came. Ravi and I have been in touch with Manny for about 3 years since our engagement. He did our engagement photos and I was so excited about them. As time came closer to the wedding Manny would check up on ravi and I and ask what we wanted during that day. The pictures he took on our wedding were absolutely amazing. I love when he sends us messages with images that he as completed so far. I can’t wait for the rest of our photos. Thank you Manny for truly capturing our day.

Manny is AMAZING. From the very moment we contacted him THREE YEARS before our wedding, he was responsive, caring, proactive, and he truly cared about us as a couple. We had the honor of using him for both our wedding day and our engagement shoot, and I don't even have words to describe the sheer masterpiece every single photo turns out to be. The engagement shoot was so much fun and we ended up with amazing photos. The wedding was even better (impossible, right? How does it get better?). Manny was a literal sniper when it came to shots during the ceremony and the reception. I honestly don't even remember seeing him the entire ceremony. I could literally go on for hours, but I'll keep it short by saying contact and book Manny, ASAP. You need him to capture your day.

I had met Manny and his team while he shot my cousin's wedding. I knew that when it was my time to say "I do" I wanted him to capture the memories. Manny was fabulous from start to finish! Our big day was filled with nerves, and Manny was there to put as at ease and make us laugh. He was encouraging throughout the entire day, sharing pictures, snapping selfies on his phone, giving us great feedback and really ensuring that every picture was going to be great. I waited until I received my final pictures to give my review, because I really wanted to be sure that my feedback was genuine. My husband and I watched our 1,000+ photos on a slideshow for over 2 hours. We were so happy with the way the day was captured. Manny photographed the important photos (group shots, bridal party, mom and dad, etc.), but the in-between shots are really what made it special. En route to the venue, dance floor, candids and more. I relive my wedding day every time I look at them, which is about every 10 minutes. The app that the pictures are available on is super easy and makes it simple to download and share with friends and family in an instant. I couldn't be happier with every single picture and will be shouting from the rooftop for every engaged couple to call Manny. I can't wait to have him photograph many more special memories for our family. We can't thank MTC enough for such a spectacular job!!!

A photographer is one of the most important vendors you choose for your wedding and I'm so happy we booked MTC. Manny does his best to learn about his clients. He makes you feel welcomed, he's friendly and professional. From our first meeting with him we knew he was the perfect choice. He takes amazing photos, he's creative and brings around a feel good vibe. We've received so many nice words from our wedding guest about him and his team as well, saying they know the photographers are there but you could not tell. I'm so excited to see our finished photos. Thank you Manny for making our wedding day an amazing one !!!!!

When planning our wedding, our photographer was one of the most important vendors on our list. My (now husband) and I researched at least 25 photographers, and although many of them had great examples of their work, none of them matched the complete package we found with Manny. Not only was he very fair in his price and packages, but what really sold us was his personality. We wanted someone we felt comfortable with throughout the entire planning process, yet Manny quickly began to feel more like a friend and then a family member by the time the wedding came around. Since our wedding, we have received endless compliments about Manny; how he blended in with everyone, how overall nice he is, but once they saw his pictures.... we have not stopped hearing how incredible his work is. My husband and I are in awe with the pictures and we will have such breathtaking memories to cherish the rest of our lives. We could not be more grateful for MTC Photography for capturing our day even more beautifully than we could have imagined. If even one person hires him based off of this review, I hope that will help to show how thankful we are.

MTC photography did an amazing job for my wedding. The owner Manny has a terrific personality which is a must when shooting hundreds of photos. He was able to put everyone at ease especially my 9 year old daughter who hates taking any pictures at all. He also used his very creative mind to capture some beautiful sunset shots of us. We were very impressed with his quality of work. His ideas were terrific and we would highly recommend him to others!!

Manny from MTC Photography is hands down the most amazing photographer I have ever met!!! He has so much energy and has this creative eye and can foresee these amazing shots. We hired him to do both our engagement shoot and our wedding and the photos are breathtaking. Manny was able to give me such a boost of confidence and it made me feel like a beauty queen. And the entire time he is so funny, we literally had a blast hanging out with him. But on top of being fun Manny has the ability to get serious and get that timeless shot of you in your dress.....that crucial moment of anticipation at your first look....and that fairytale moment you share with your spouse out in the middle of the dance floor for your first dance. I also loved that throughout the night Manny was sharing photos of our special day on facebook and the amount of love and support we got from our facebook family and friends was so overwhelming!!! Its been a little over a month since my special day and Manny is still sharing photos and tagging me on instagram in a shot and with every photo I see it brings back such amazing memories of that day. Manny's level of professionalism and his clear talent for capturing amazing shots made him such an easy choice for us. Thank you Manny!!!!

We loved Manny and MTC Photography!! Manny and his second photographer Paul were extremely professional, friendly, and fun wedding photographers. Manny met us at our wedding venue a week before our wedding so he could get to know the space and have a plan in his head about how and where he would take pictures during our outdoor ceremony and indoor reception. Manny was obviously excited about the wedding which made us even more excited about it, knowing he would take awesome photos. After taking our first look and pre-ceremony photos with our bridal party and families, Manny asked us what else we wanted photos of. He wanted us to be happy with our photos which was of course so important to us. Throughout the wedding Manny was posting pictures to social media using our hashtag so they were ready for us to see that very night. Many of our guests have told us how much they liked our photographers and how professional they thought they were! It was only 2-3 weeks after the wedding that Manny sent us a link to see all of our photos online. And they are BEAUTIFUL!!! I highly highly recommend MTC for any event you want to remember with beautiful photos!

I cannot thank Manny enough for his great photography skills and professionalism on our wedding day! We knew from the very beginning that we wanted to use Manny for our wedding! We had Manny take our engagement photos as well, and he made us a poster for our wedding for our guests when they walked into our venue. Manny was great coordinating with our venue and DJ. He is very professional in his work and he also likes to have fun. The pictures that he took on our wedding are unbelievable and I cannot thank him enough for them. He would post "teasers" so myself and my guests would see them before all of the photos were finished and I would get comments on how everyone loved the pictures that he took. I haven't stopped looking at them! Thank you as well to Chad, who took awesome pictures and was very professional. Manny does a phenomenal job and I would recommend him to anyone that is looking for a photographer! Thank you again!! Much love, Alanna & John

My husband and I decided to hire Manny as the photographer for our wedding and we are EXTREMELY glad that we did! I just don't know that I could properly put into words just how great it was to work with him. Before getting married, I was a bridesmaid in 3 different weddings and I hated the photographers in every single one!. They were rude and rushed us around. This created a reasonable amount of fear in booking a photographer. However, Manny is completely opposite from all of that! He truly cares and wants to get to know you as a couple so that he has an idea of what you are like, and what you would like. He is personable and makes you feel comfortable on your big day. Once I had met Manny, I knew that I wouldn't have any kind of list whatsoever of "must do's" or "must not do's" as far as photos. I trusted him. He just gets it. His talent is incredible!!

Our wedding day ran so smoothly! That was in part to Manny knowing what shots to capture and how to do it efficiently. Once at the reception, Manny and his assistant, Glenn became ghosts! They were not in our face or distracting in the least. It's almost like they disappear and just pop out of the shadows when you least expect it and capture these absolutely phenomenal shots.

For those social media savvy brides, Manny is very active with posting your pictures on his Facebook account. All throughout the day of, he managed to find time to upload photos and has already, in less than 1 month, posted two albums of GORGEOUS photos!! All of my friends and family are going CRAZY over how amazing they are.

My recommendation is this: Hire Manny. Do not look elsewhere. Trust me, there is no need.

Think about it: Once your wedding day is over, there are really only two physical and tangible things that last forever. These are your wedding rings and your photos. You can always change your rings, but there is no re-do ever on your photos. Choose the best photographer you can!

We knew Manny from our town and had seen photos he had done of other weddings on his facebook page. From the first meeting it because clear that it was going to be a good fit, we got together and talked about details and how we were going to shoot around Freehold which offers a nice background.

The day of the wedding Manny came with an assistant. We were officially blending two families, and between us we have 5 kids. He was very patient with them and took some really awesome pictures. Some of the angles he took of my bride and I were incredible and I can't wait to have them enlarged. I mean top notch photography. Some photos were staged and others candid, he caught several moments that are priceless and can't be bought. Truly "moment captured".

If you are thinking about hiring Manny have no reservations, you will receive professional services and top shelf photography. Thanks for being part of our day and recording priceless images!

While in search for a photographer for our wedding, we admired photos from a few of our friends' weddings. Each was personal to their personality as a couple. We were excited to learn that their weddings were all photographed by the same photographer - Manny from MTC Photography!

I was also excited to learn that Manny was from my home state of NJ and was willing to travel to our venue located on LI. From the moment we first spoke, we knew Manny was the right fit for us. Manny is communicative, professional, artistic, funny, genuine, and understanding. He also recommended a fabulous team of videographers that added to our A-Team!

His process allowed us piece of mind and confidence. Manny and his team arrived early to our location and led the process, capturing all of the best moments and minimizing any distractions.

My guests followed our hashtag and received exciting glimpses into our day thanks to Manny's updates on site and as soon as the day after. He quickly blended with our family and friends.

We had the Best. Day. Ever. and having Manny as his team capture all of those special moments is absolutely priceless. They will be our go to team for all of our future celebrations.

Thank you Manny and Glenn for your genuineness, professionalism, and awesomeness!

Manny was awesome! We loved every single picture Manny took. From the engagement photos to the last photo taken during our reception. Manny and Glen took care of everything the day of the wedding. Phrase even brought a hanger for my dress that said "bride" when I advised him I did not have one. I would highly recommend Manny to anyone looking for a photographer and cannot wait for the opportunity to work with him again!!

The photography for our event was perfect...every aspect of the Gala was documented with posed as well as candid photos and the spirit of the evening was definitely captured in each of the pictures taken. Many were amazed and commented on the fact that they were never aware that someone was taking pictures of them...a true compliment to Manny, our photographer...there was never an intrusion on anyone, especially at the emotional times of the evening, yet every special moment was documented with an appropriate photo. We were more than pleased!!

We had a great experience working with MTC Photoraphy. From the moment we met Manny, we knew he would be a great fit as the photographer for our wedding on 8/3/13. He is very professional, and made us feel very comfortable from our first meeting. He is very friendly, relaxed and fun which makes wedding day much easier! Definitely do your engagement shoot with Manny before your wedding - great way to spend some time together and get comfortable taking photographs before the big day. Our engagement and wedding photos are absolutely gorgeous and we have received endless compliments on them. MTC Photography definitely captured the most amazing moments from our wedding day without being at all intrusive! MTC Photography's wedding packages are a great value for the price - highly recommend!

Manny was recommended to me by a good friend, and I'm so glad I used him as my wedding photographer. Before meeting Manny, I saw his online gallery of photos, and they are AMAZING!!! I knew he was going to capture some wonderful moments on my wedding day. The place where my husband and I got married didn't have much to work with in terms of scenery. Manny assured us that wouldn't be a problem, and he was right. From looking at the photos, you'd think we got married at a luxurious garden. Manny caught many special moments from the reception as well. The great thing is my husband and I were able to view a preview of the pictures from our wedding the very next day...talk about being fast! Manny posted them on Facebook, so family and friends could see them as well. Family and friends were saying how great the pictures turned out, and I completely agree! Only a few weeks later and all of our photos were posted on Manny's online gallery. There are so many wonderful photos, and I can't stop looking at them. It's going to be hard to choose which pictures to use for our album. Not only is Manny an amazing photographer, but he has a great personality. He's easy-going, personable, funny, and puts you at ease in front of the camera. It was an absolute pleasure working with him, and I highly recommend Manny!!

It was a long time coming for this but I finally hired a photographer to take pics with my daughter Lexi and I. Manny came to our club in Franklin Lakes where we had the perfect setting for our photo shoot. Manny's ability to capture our expressions while I spent some quality time with my daughter was priceless. We spent the day laughing and just had an overall great time together. MTC Photography's unique style enables him to capture all the moments during and in between your photo shoot.

Manny was so cooperative and easy to deal with! Since this was a second wedding I wasn't looking for all the usual pictures, but he managed to convince me to take the extra time and get some outdoor shots. I'm so glad he did. The pictures are absolutely gorgeous! Every shot he took is wonderful, and I don't think he missed any detail of the day. Manny is very accommodating and easy to contact. If your looking for a photographer I would highly recommend him.

Manny is without a doubt one of the best photographers I've come across. When I compare our photographs to others wedding photographs, his are clearly 100 times more beautiful. He also has an awesome ability to make you feel very special while taking your pictures. His sense of humor is a huge plus as well, many other photographers would not have taken such funny pictures that show our true personalities. I would recommend him to anyone looking for a fun, professional photographer who truly has a passion for what he does! I would never use anyone else!

It is without a doubt impossible to put into words how amazing my photographer was not only the day of my wedding but also the days leading up to and those that followed as well. Manny Carabel was absolutely perfect! He made every part of my wedding day feel like a fairytale. He captured moments that were beyond words.....moments that I could never thank him enough for. He made me feel amazing, beautiful and perfectly at ease....even my six year old daughter fell in love with him. I would only hope that every bride out there is as lucky as I was....my photographer not only took our wedding photos, but captured moments which will live on in our hearts forever. He made our fairytale come true and now I have the photos to look back on forever! Thank you Manny...thank you for making my fairytale a reality!

MTC Photography was first class throughout the entire wedding process. From our first meeting with Manny, to the engagement session with him and his assistan Glen, and finally the wedding day, we could not be happier with the service, proffessionalism and most importantly, photos! Manny and Glen were more like friends than simply photographers, and they made everything easy and fun. If we could do it all over again, I'd hire MTC without hesitation. In fact, I'm sure that for the next big event in our lives, we will! Thanks so much Manny and Glen...you guys really are THE BEST!!!! -Jaime and Tracy Schiller

MTC Photography is absolutely the BEST!!! We couldn’t have asked for a better photographer! Manny has a great ability to capture beautiful moments on film! Manny takes the time to get to know you before your photo shoot and this allows the atmosphere to be comfortable, fun and easy-going during the shoot. We love the Behind the Scenes Videos and love being able to share our photo shoots with our families and friends! Manny shot our engagement photos, engagement party and wedding! There is not one picture that we didn't like!! Most people have to wait weeks until they see pictures from their wedding but with MTC you get a preview of your wedding the next day!!!! We highly recommend MTC Photography, you will not be disappointed!!
-Jenna and Matt Vecchione

We absolutely loved our wedding photographer, MTC Photography! Manny was professional, detail-oriented, and very patient with my long list of requests/questions. Throughout the planning process Manny would reply to my emails/calls quickly, send me helpful reminders, and was overall very pleasant to work with.
On our wedding day, he and his assistant Glenn arrived on time, were very professional, and were great at rallying our troop (West Point pun intended)! Once the formal pictures were over I felt like I literally didn’t see Manny and Glenn again until the end of the night when they were saying goodbye. The fabulous photos prove they were always some where snapping away, but they were so unobtrusive that I didn’t even notice them! My husband actually referred to them as ninjas because they would appear quickly, get down on the ground to get the perfect shot if they had to, and then they were gone! My favorite part of working with MTC was that Manny posted teaser pictures on Facebook the next day. I absolutely loved coming home and being able to just stare at pictures of my wedding. My family can’t stop raving about how great the photos are and I cant wait to see my album. I would highly recommend MTC to any bride!

Well potential brides and grooms... the planning gets hairy, the tasks get overwhelming and selecting the vendors is a giant burden. The cake needs to be perfect, the dress exquisite, etc, etc. Well what does a bride do when her husband to be is a photographer but of course he can't photo-document the day???? You call MTC Photography!!!! From the moment you see Manny's website you will be sold but just in case let me elaborate...We met with Manny about 9 mos before our wedding, he showed us his material and we discussed what we were hoping he would capture for our big day. Professional and courteous, he listened and took notes. He arrived on the big day cool, calm and collected and started snapping away. He captured every possible moment and MORE. Very photo journalistic, no need to pose, he just had a knack for what was coming next and got the shot!! He went above and beyond, had his assistant drive my car to venue, and when our Rolls Royce was going too slow to make it to cocktail hour on time his assistant Glenn jumped in the trunk of his truck so the bride and groom could hitch a ride. This is your photographer, make no mistake you will have beautiful photos of your day to remember forever and look at frequently, now get back to the cake and dress etc etc...

One word ... AMAZING!!!! Manny (the owner and proprieter) is incredible and my parents and I felt at ease with him from the instant we met with him. The engagement photo shoot really wowed us ... two hours went by so fast as we were so comfortable shooting and hanging out with Manny and his assistants and the results were natural and spectacular. The day of the wedding Manny swept in said hello, and then seemed to disappear into the background as my wedding day took place. As with the e-shoot, he made Michael and I and my whole bridal party feel comfortable right from the start, and made it really fun to work with him. He had my shy 6 year old niece hamming it up for the camera within five minutes of meeting her. He even managed to make me feel like the most beautiful bride he had ever seen, which every bride deserves to feel on her day!!!

He just posted our "teaser pics" on Facebook and we are already blown away at all of the moments he seamlessly captured! He has been incredible to work with, has a vast amount of talent, and is an amazing value for the money. I felt like I hired a celebrity photographer at a real person's price. I am looking forward to meeting with him soon to pick out our album. Only negative .... I am afraid there might be too many incredible pics to choose from .... Thank you MTC Photography!!!!

The minute you meet Manny you will fall in love with him and his work. He is a true delight to work with, you couldn't possibly find a more professional and easy-going person in the industry. His work is exceptional and he is just about invisible at the wedding. No pressure to get particular shots yet the results are incredible. My husband and I recently were married in Spring Lake on a cold and cloudy day but he and Glen made the pictures look like the perfect day. You will not regret hiring him for any event! Highly recommended.

Manny has become a friend to my husband and I - he was extremely attentive and always available from the day we met him. He and his assistant were wonderful every moment of our wedding day and we are so excited to have beautiful photos that will last a lifetime!

MTC Photography, Owner / Operator, Manny Carabel provided first, comfortable conversation and instruction, created perfect settings to capture the moment he invisioned from behind the camera and produced a final product that was beyond PERFECT!

Working with MTC photography was amazing. Manny is creative and fun. He really understood what we were looking for and he executed amazingly. I would recommend him to anyone who wants to showcase a special event. He makes the process fun and I can't wait to use him for our next event. Thanks again Manny!

I would highly recommend MTC Photography. They did such an amazing job @ my beach wedding in August. They took amazing photos, and are so passionate about what they do. You didn't even know they were there, taking the photo's and yet, they didn't miss a beat. Within a few days, they gave me a sneak preview which brought me right back to each moment. I really enjoyed working with them.

My husband and I were married on 10/04/14. We were originally scheduled to get married last year but had to post pone. Manny was scheduled to be our photographer last year. He was very helpful and patient with us. When we rescheduled our wedding he was available. He is professional and Takes absolutely beautiful pictures. He has a great eye. He takes suggestions very well and is a lot of fun. He doesn't just tell you to stand there and smile. He gets you to smile and makes standing In front of the camera comfortable. I couldn't give him enough stars. I would highly recommend MTC Photography to anyone having a special event. Manny is more than our wedding photographer. He has become our friend and a part of our family.

Manny was amazing! Myself and my husband hired Manny for our wedding, which included an engagement shoot. We realized from the first day we met with him that he wasn't like other photographers. He had a way of taking pictures to bring out the best in everyone. He makes you feel like you are the only ones that matter when he's working. We have had nothing but compliment after compliment from our engagement pictures and we knew we made the right choice for him to shoot the wedding. All of our pictures from the wedding were outstanding. And the turn around time to get them from him was incredibly fast. Manny is a great guy and everyone at the wedding loved him. He doesn't "bother" you with all the posed pictures very much, which is what we liked. He has a lot of energy and gave us so many amazing memories to remember our wedding by.

Great personality when you first meet him. Has a very nice way of show casing your online photos which appears to be making your album simple when the times came. Pricing is very fair as well. Day of our wedding, was on time and very positive.
Negatives: (Where things mattered the most)
Slow response time to emails or returning calls prior to our affair.
Very slow in providing final return of albums. Several emails and messages requesting updates and blame placed on company. I hired you, not them.
Comes off slightly overconceeded and didn't place as the important people I felt in communications.
He appears to have a love for the art of photography but more inline with red carpet galas then personal events
