Hello - I am doing some research from Scotland with an Australian lady who has a picture of a man - in an envelope along with other family photos - the printed bit says J Craigen and then Aberdeen.

In this family history there is an Alexander Craigen Birth ABT. 1843 • Drainie, Morayshire whose parents were John Craigend and Jean Proctor - he had siblings James, Jean, John, Helen, Ann and Margaret

Had hoped there might be a connection but now I think that J Craigen was the photographer as the reverse is also copied and it says J Craigen Photographer 16 George St Aberdeen

Sorry to mislead you
