MySQL left join, limit 1 row

    Hello all.
    this query works well.
    But I came up with one problem, when I left join photos, I get as many rows as user has photos.

    is there someway to do for example:
    `order by photos.id DESC limit 1`
    In the middle of left join or somehow else ?

    My current SQL query :
    
    SELECT `users`.`id` , `users`.`name` , `cities`.`name` AS `city` , `photos`.`photo` AS photo
    FROM users
    LEFT JOIN `cities` ON users.city = cities.id
    LEFT JOIN `photos` ON users.id = photos.id
    WHERE users.id
    IN ( 77, 165, 166, 169, 164, 194, 195 )
    
    
    Code (markup):
    Thank you guys for your time!

    cheers,
    Jaroslav

    Use GROUP BY to limit 1 picture per user

    SELECT `users`.`id` , `users`.`name` , `cities`.`name` AS `city` , `photos`.`photo` AS photo
    FROM users
    LEFT JOIN `cities` ON users.city = cities.id
    LEFT JOIN `photos` ON users.id = photos.id
    WHERE users.id
    IN ( 77, 165, 166, 169, 164, 194, 195 )
    GROUP BY users.id
