Manny was one of THE BEST vendors that I hired for my wedding! From the moment that we met at an open house, he was incredibly professional, warm and kind, and the most supportive person! I also really was drawn to his photography style, which was bright and colorful and had amazing composition. Upon hiring him, he provided the most detailed photography guide I’ve ever received with a myriad of wedding tips so I was already so impressed from the very beginning.
Manny both took my bridals and did photography for our wedding. For my bridals, we were looking to do a Spanish vibe and so we planned a location in San Antonio that was colorful and vibrant. The day of, he was quick on his feet to pivot plans when our original location ended up being too crowded, and I actually ended up LOVING our second location even more. During the entire session, he had so many great ideas for poses, and also helped my mom get involved while she helped me with my dress. The shots he took blew me away! The colors, the poses, my dress, the flowers - he captured everything so perfectly!
Come wedding day, Manny and his assistant were so on top of every single moment and pose - making sure that we captured all the important moments and the fun little ones in between. He had so many ideas for things to capture and helped my bridal party and family with a variety of poses. My bridal party raved how much they loved Manny and how comfortable he made everyone feel while taking photos. Wherever we were, there was Manny or his assistant making sure they got the shot. We got the sneak peeks a week later and the full set almost two months later and again, I was blown away with all the photos! From the details to the dancing, he captured so many fun and great moments that we’ll cherish forever!
I promise you Manny is THE PHOTOGRAPHER you want to hire, hands down! His professionalism, talent, playful attitude, and passion for what he does will make him your favorite vendor that you’ll hire!
Manny is the BEST photographer! We did an engagement session with him and wanted pictures of our new home and he was excited to do that! He took amazing pics of our wedding and was so great to work with. He helped build a timeline as well which was great and worked seamlessly with all our other vendors. We have talked since about wanting Manny to take any other life event photos we have in the future!
