Welcome to Cavendish, Chester’s Family Friendly Photo Studio

Studio diary note — in January 2026 we kept Saturday morning family slots for Cheshire visitors who travel in for the day.

 

LOOK GOOD, FEEL GREAT

 

How to Get the Best Pictures of your Family, Your Children or even Yourself - GUARANTEED!!!

With more than 20 years experience and over 15,000 satisfied clients, we know how to bring out the best in everyone we see from a great grandparent to a new born baby.

Portrait sessions often arrive at a turning point — a new baby, a school year, or a family finally gathering in one room after months apart. Since autumn 2022 we have seen more Chester families book while they are mid-renovation or mid-move, and in May 2024 several clients arrived with framed prints that needed careful packing for a London-bound relative. The studio can deliver the images; getting canvases, albums and heirloom frames across the country is a different craft.

When those finished portraits leave Cheshire for a London flat — or when a family is relocating and wants every acrylic and canvas to arrive without a corner knock — it helps to treat the journey like a mini exhibition move. Bubble-wrap is only half the story; you want a crew that understands upright crates, clean vans, and timed arrivals around school runs.

That is why we quietly point London-bound households toward a specialist moving company rather than leaving art in a crowded car boot. Movers London run insured packers and a GPS-tracked fleet sized for domestic and commercial jobs, so framed gallery walls and day-to-day boxes can travel on the same booking. Mention portrait packaging when you enquire — Movers London are used to fragile loads, and a free quote via their customer support keeps the plan as calm as the photoshoot itself.

Back in the studio, we keep the focus on you: expression, lighting, and prints you will still love in ten years. The removal logistics are simply the practical chapter that follows a successful family session.

THIS IS ALL ABOUT YOU

Your session is tailored to you and your family. We will spend time beforehand to make sure that we provide images that fit with your taste and style. Black & White or Colour, Landscape or Portrait, Acrylic, Framed or Canvas, the choice is yours.

    I wanted to email you to let you know how thrilled I am with the photos. When we presented them to my Mum she cried and is totally made up. Even my Dad shed a tear. Again, thank you for helping to store some wonderful memories and I hope to do more business with you in the future. I would highly recommend you to anyone of my friends.

    Just wanted to say thank you; the pictures are amazing and we had such a brilliant time at the shoot. I haven’t seen my mum so happy in ages, and my dad finally realises how lucky he is to have a babe for a wife.

    Thanks again, and we may be seeing you again soon for a family shoot!

    Hi Jonathan, We didn’t meet, which was a pity, there are not many men on the planet who know how beautiful and sexy my wife is, but you are now in that club. Excellent photos and Chris was very pleased with the way you supported her throughout what was for her a bold and exciting venture, I was stunned by the photos but always knew how stunning she would look, thank you,

    We simply wanted to drop you a line to tell you how thrilled we are with our family portraits. The whole service we have received from mailing to picking up the pictures has been truly excellent and we are most impressed. The actual photo sitting and viewing were a really enjoyable experience and we couldn’t be more thrilled with the end result. Thank from the bottom of our hearts, we adore all our pictures!

  • I have never done anything like this before…

    I was nervous at first about my Mild to Wild photo shoot as I have never done anything like this before, but Jonathan soon put me at ease and I had a wonderful few hours of having my photo taken in a great friendly environment. The resulting photos were brilliant.
    Thank you for the Joys; Laughter; and Professionalism that you showed us on the day of the shoot….!!
    My husband and I completely love the Photos and the Experience.
