What John photographs

The reveal

See it on your wall before you decide.

A 10x8in frame looks big on a screen. On your wall it often isn’t. I come back with your portraits and show you how they will look on your own wall at different sizes, so you pick the right size and style before you spend anything.

Files stay on a phone. Portraits live on your wall. Every print at 20x16in or larger comes with its matching digital file, so you can share it with the family too.

How it works

“John has a knack of making you relax so the moment is more natural.”

— Client, home portrait session

A portrait every year, or just when it matters.

Children change fast. Many families book once a year, others for birthdays, anniversaries and moments like a new baby. Whenever it’s time, you know who to call.

A birthday or anniversary coming up?

Portfolio

Families squeezed onto one sofa. Grandparents with the grin the whole family knows. Couples celebrating years together, and brides and grooms on the biggest day of their lives. These are portraits made in living rooms, gardens and the Cheshire countryside, and they all start the same way: a cuppa, a chat and a few laughs, until you forget I’m there.

Family portraits

Three generations on one sofa, children mid-giggle, everyone looking like themselves.

Portraits to treasure

Mum, Dad, Nan, Grandad or the two of you: a portrait to keep and to hand down.

Special occasions

Anniversaries, birthdays, new arrivals and every milestone worth marking.

Weddings

Your day as it actually felt, from getting ready to the last dance.

At home and on location

In your favourite room, or out in the countryside you love.

Memories fade. Your photographs won’t.

Getting ready, the arrival, the first glance, the register, the speeches, the first dance. You’ll be there for most of it — but not all of it, and not from every angle.

I’m John Radford. For over 15 years I’ve photographed couples and families across Cheshire. On the day I’m friendly, unobtrusive and on your side — and the same person you spoke to on the phone.

Nurseries, schools & events

Happy children, happy parents — and money back for your setting.

No fixed fee. A share of every sale goes back to your nursery or school. DBS checked, private galleries, minimal disruption.

Three ways to work together

Hi, I’m John.

I’m the photographer behind Just Lovely Images, based in Northwich, Cheshire. Photography has been part of my whole life — for over 15 years I’ve been doing it for families and couples like you.

I’m a dad of three, so I know what real family life looks like: noisy, unpredictable and brilliant. That’s how I shoot too — relaxed, chatty, no stiff poses. Yes, I talk a lot. It’s how I put people at ease.

You’ll deal with me from first call to final frame. No sales team, no assistant you’ve never met.

If you’ve ever hated having your photo taken, you’re exactly who I like working with.
