HOW IT WORKS

stress-free photography.
we make it happen. 

have you dreamed of having pictures or a portrait session?

When you wake up in the morning, you should smile.  Let's make that happen.

When you wake up in the morning, you should smile.  Let's make that happen.

Time can never be recreated, but portraits can freeze it and let you always relive the moment.

Often when we wait, we lose the joy we could be experiencing now.  Payment plans (interest free) and artistic enhancements which remove (insert any excuse here) make this the perfect time.

You can't change the beginning, but you can start where you are and change the ending.  C.S. Lewis

HOW IT WORKS

Two studio locations and an expansive portrait garden

formal or relaxed and casual, we can tell your story in our exclusive photo locations.


Sometimes, the hardest part of a photography session is figuring out where to change and where to use the restroom.  What if it's cold, windy or blazing hot?  We have you covered.  The Cottage Studio and Gardens features a multi-acre park-like space so you can have a studio and outdoor looks in the same session.  The warehouse has clean, modern sets as well as rich, timeless options.  The best part?  It's all designed just for you and your comfort.  



The C j Duncan Difference

EARNING YOUR TRUST

THIS IS THE FUN PART! WE PLAN IT ALL OUT & INSTALL*

A full service studio

Portraits and albums are our passion.  Memories can have a life beyond your devices. 


If you can dream it, we can probably create it.  From large scale art to petite portraits that come in a variety of mediums (acrylic, wood, metal, canvas and traditional photographic prints), at C j Duncan Photography we start with the end in mind and craft custom art designed for your space.  From your holiday greeting cards to luxury storytelling albums to digital files, our heart is to make sure you don't leave the studio with a "to-do" list.  Instead, you leave with finished art that is display ready.  As a bonus, with certain investment levels, we even hang them on your walls for you.

A couple you can trust

Cris & Dee are Lubbock natives with a nearly twenty year track record. 


We get it.  Portrait sessions can be hard.  Schedules, emotions, what to wear...if it can go wrong, it might on the day of your pictures.  We do this every year with our family--and have the extended families on a three year rotation.  Our walls are filled with the people we love the most.  It's what we believe in and after seeing the power of portraits to help heal broken hearts, buoy spirits and affirm an individual's worth, it's something we want for everyone.  Last year, one of our first infants we photographed graduated high school and it was truly humbling to consider the deep friendship we've developed with that family as we have created portrait art of them for nearly two decades.  The C j Duncan difference lies in our passion for people and our unwavering commitment to allowing people to see themselves the way other see them and thereby affirming their worth.

Yes!  Our heart is for you to be able to enjoy images in the medium of your choice.  To make sure they don't just live on a drive in a drawer, all files are offered as companion options.  They are included with a portrait box (collection of 10-30 matted images in a luxury box) and are available as add-ons with albums and wall art.

All files will have a romancing level that matches the printed art.

We are in the heart of Lubbock, Texas at 24th & Slide.  The cottage studio is at the rear of the property and the warehouse studio is just a mile away near 34th & Frankford.

We do travel worldwide for photography sessions for clients.  



If you can dream it, it may be possible.  Vehicles, animals, lots of people (like really, really big groups), props all of these and so much more are possible. 

Dogs are our favorite.  It's always fun to see what we do to make your four legged friends perk up. 

Cris photographs a lot of commercial projects and helps business owners with their branding imagery.  That just means that he's photographed everything from the tiniest of jewels and orthodontic devices to massive industrial machinery.  We are always up for something new and different.  

Let's talk.
