Merce Hernán, a family photographer in Ciudad Real specializing in family and maternity sessions. I capture natural, spontaneous and emotive moments of babies, children and family celebrations.
I am Merce Hernán (Mercedes Hernández), a photographer based in Ciudad Real specializing in family photography. My work focuses on capturing the essence of relationships: looks, unexpected laughter and small gestures that turn a session into an authentic memory. I define my style as emotional and natural photography — I seek the magic of the spontaneous and prefer working outdoors where light and nature help images breathe and tell a story. Why choose me as your family photographer? Because I commit 100% to every project. Before the session we talk: I learn about your concerns and suggest ideas tailored to your family — from relaxed walks through the countryside to playtime with pets or meaningful details that represent you — so the session feels comfortable and fun, not a series of rigid poses. My aim is for both adults and children to feel at ease and for the final images to reflect personality and emotion. I regularly work with families, maternity and newborns, and I also offer children’s sessions and communion or family celebration reports. In every session I prioritize naturalness: soft light, simple compositions and real moments. If you want to include pets, creative elements (bubbles, color powders) or special outfits, we can plan it together — I can also recommend or coordinate with people who help include animals when a family doesn’t have a pet of their own. My process is friendly and transparent: prior planning to choose the best setting and time, a session paced according to your family’s rhythm, and a careful selection of the best images. I deliver memories in high-quality formats (albums, prints, special keepsake boxes) so your photos are worthy of the moments they represent. I work in Ciudad Real and the surrounding area, bringing a sensitivity for the natural and urban spaces of the region. If you’re looking for a family photographer in Ciudad Real who prioritizes emotion, naturalness and visual storytelling, I would be delighted to meet you and create images that endure. Contact me and we’ll present ideas for your session — together we’ll make each photograph tell a part of your story.
