MANUEL L. LIBRODO JR. is a highly decorated photographer. Specialising in travel and people, glamour and fashion photography, his popularity among photographers and photography fans is evident through more than 27 million hits in his Pbase account alone and more than 120,000 followers he has on his Facebook personal and fan pages. His images have appeared in many publications worldwide, including several cover pages for Asian Geographic and calendars for UNICEF.
A number of big names in international photography have given praise to Librodo’s works. In 2009, Scott Kelby called Librodo a photographer who has "phenomenal vision" who "creates pure magic". For that, Kelby said Librodo was "one of the world’s five best photographers that you probably haven’t heard about." Zack Arias, another photography guru, also observed that Librodo’s vision extends beyond photography. Last year, a popular blogger (with over 1.5 million followers) at boredpanda.com, cited him as one of the top ten of the world’s most famous portrait photographers.
In fact, Librodo has already achieved such a highly respected stature that he has already been invited to judge in a number of international photography contests as well as speak in international photography conferences alongside famous personalities as Joey Lawrence, Michael Yamashita, Zack Arias & Steve McCurry.
Librodo is also a highly-sought photography mentor, having conducted more than 150 workshops worldwide since 2007. He has mentored more than a thousand students, many of whom have now become successful in their own respective photography careers. He has also collaborated with countless number of models including international beauty pageant winners and other famous personalities.
Manny Librodo is from Lambunao, Iloilo, Philippines. He graduated Valedictorian in high school and was a college scholar at University in the Philippines in the Visayas in college. Before he ventured into photography full-time, he was a high school teacher in one of Thailand’s premier international schools.

Manny
Firstly, the looks of it, including its size and the weight. It is easy to move around and I can pack in my bag with more lenses now. Appearance-wise, it is good-looking and classy. Need I say more?
Secondly, the image results. It has an amazing colour depth and dynamic range. As I rely heavily on colours and natural light in communicating the artistry of my images, I need my images to be crisp and rich. The a7 series delivers that and more.
