Cecilia Porras (Bustamante) - El Paso, Texas - 1953
The bride in this beautiful wedding dress is Cecilia Porras (Bustamante). Her picture was taken on her wedding day in 1953 by the Casasola Photograph Studio. Apart from her name, her identity is unknown. The Casasola Studio took many pictures of El Pasoans and captured special occasions like weddings or graduations. Alfonso Casasola, a member of a famous family of Mexican photographers, came to El Paso in the 1920s after several years in the Mexican consular service. He established the Casasola Studio (also known by its Spanish name, Estudio Casasola) at 511 S. El Paso Street and was active in many civic organizations. He died on February 17, 1948 at the age of 59, but his wife, Emma Flores Casasola, continued the studio for many years.
