With MGM it is possible to do exactly what you are describing.
What might be confusing for first time users is that MGM is comparing the relative folder path starting from the selected source folder and target group. It is important to select the appropriate source folder and target group before starting the sync operation.

My Pictures/client proofs/wedding1/ceremony/image1.jpg
When we select 'client proofs' as the source folder and 'client proofs' as the target group, MGM will upload the image to
All Photographs/client proofs/wedding1/ceremony/image1.jpg
