Our History

Dunbar Photography, as a business originated in 1981, with the sole intention of "quality first". This was, and still is our main goal. Shortly after starting our business a new studio was built in Woodlawn and still remains as our primary location. Dunbar Photography is a husband & wife team. We feel this is the best approach for almost any photographic situation. Jay Dunbar is a self taught photographer that learned his craft backwards,in the darkroom. Jay performed several years of darkroom work before he ever picked up a camera. From the knowledge gained in the darkroom it was just a natural transition to actually start creating images with a camera. This "backwards approach" has been instrumental in the fine tuning of his photography as Jay has a complete understanding of the entire process of image making, from image capture to printing.Twana Dunbar, along with her vast office management skills and her ability to work with people will make your entire experience with Dunbar Photography very positive.
