Cien Besos y Mil Sonrisas

I'm Mamen, the person behind Cien Besos y Mil Sonrisas, and I specialise in family photography in Gamonal (Burgos). My work is born from a love of imperfect stories: untidy laughter, intertwined hands, races through the park and quiet moments full of tenderness. I don't aim for glossy, magazine-style images; I look for the photograph that makes you say, “This is us.” Why choose us: we make each session a warm, authentic experience. My approach is documentary and relaxed: no forced posing, lots of spontaneity. I specialise in capturing families and the moments that surround them — maternity, the newborn stage, child sessions and milestone occasions such as communions or birthdays — always prioritising natural connection and real emotion. How we work: we start with a pre-session chat so we can get to know one another and understand what matters to you. I listen to your preferences, your quirks and what makes your family unique, then design the session so it feels comfortable and pressure-free. In the studio I take care of light and space; outdoors I use corners of Burgos to play with natural light; at home I respect your routine and capture life as it really is. During the session I act as your accomplice: I play with little ones, bring out genuine smiles and let things flow without rigid scripts. What sets me apart: experience with children and families allows me to read the pace of each session and adapt with patience and a sense of humour. I handle newborns with the sensitivity and care they require, always respecting baby-led timings and prioritising wellbeing. I love including everyone in the session — parents, siblings and, if you wish, pets — because those photos tell the true family story. My commitment is to deliver honest keepsakes filled with emotion and personality that withstand the passage of time. If you are looking for a friendly family photographer in Gamonal who understands families and celebrates authenticity, let's talk: together we'll create the memory you'll want to revisit again and again.
