Mrs. C. Chavez

The portrait circa 1925 shows bride Mrs. C. Chavez. She is dressed beautifully. She wears a long veil, which is fixed with a hair piece made out of pearls. Veil and dress are decorated with lace. In comparison to many other wedding pictures, this one stands out because the bride is smiling. Usually at that time, the bridal couple and their wedding party were not smiling in such photographs.
