Wedding Party

Wedding Party

The image shows the wedding party around the bridal couple Alicia Candelaria Pena and Gabriel V. Pena. To the left are Felipe V. Pena and Rita Castaneda Nava and to the right are (right to left) Victoria Pena Lerma, Guillermo Cordoba, and Emma Lara Cordoba. The picture was taken in 1948 by the Casasola Photograph Studio. It is a painted black and white photograph. 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.
