Description:
A: Envelope to hold negatives. Labeled: "4/16/55 Harmon—Albyalde Wedding".
B: Negative in horizontal view of the interior of a church, photographed from the aisle facing the front. The altar is visible, along with icons on either side, flowers, candelabras, and the railing around the raised altar area. In front of that are a man and woman, presumably the bride and groom. Groom at left and bride ar right, the bride holding a bouquet. Pews can partially be seen in the foreground.
C: Negative in horizontal view of the same interior, with the bride, groom, and two older people, perhaps the parents of one of them, on either side, the older man at left and older woman at right.
D: Negative in vertical view of the same interior, with just the bride standing in front of the altar. The shot is tighter, with less background on either side.
E: Negative in horizontal view of the interior during the wedding ceremony. Photographed from above on a diagonal at the very rear of the room, showing the rafters, the sepctator's heads, and chandaliers hanging from the ceiling.
F: Negative in horizontal view of the same interior, arranged identically to negatives "B" and "C," again with the bride and groom, with the same older people from negative "C" and two other men, possibly other members of the wedding party. The new additions are tacked onto the end of either side of the line of people.
G: Negative in horizontal view of the same interior, identical to negative "E."
H: Negative in horizontal view of the same interior, identical to negative "F."
I: Negative in horizontal view of the same interior, identical to negative "C."
J: Negative in horizontal view of the same interior, identical to negative "B."
K: Negative in vertical view of a different interior, possibly a private home or an event hall. A long table with tablecloth stands in the center of the image, with a cake, plates, and utensils sitting atop it. The bride and groom and three older people stand behind the table. In the background there is ornate drapery.
L: Negative in vertical view of what is possibly the same interior, with the bride standing facing the camera, and a woman at her left, facing her and adjusting the bride's veil. Behind them are windows with Venetian blinds.
M: Negative in vertical view of the same interior, with the bride and groom behind a table laden with wedding gifts, both wrapped and unwrapped. They are reading a card together. Behind them is ornate drapery.
N: Negative in vertical view of an interior doorway, probably in the church, with a sconce and small basin of holy water at left. The bride and an older man, possibly her father, are entering through the doorway, arm in arm.
O: Negative in vertical view of an interior, possibly a vestibule, with the birde, another woman, the man from the previous negative, and another, younger man. The younger man is speaking to the older one. Coat hooks hang over the windows in the background.
P: Negative in vertical view of an interior, the event hall or private home. The bride and groom stand behind the table with the cake. The bride is feeding a piece to the groom.
Q: Negative in vertical view of the church interior, arranged similarly to negatives "E" and "G," but with the camera shifted to the left slightly. The wedding party is beginning to move down the aisle toward the rear of the church.
R: Negative in vertical view of the bride and groom standing at the table with the cake, cutting it together.
S: Negative in vertical view of the same interior scene, arranged identically to the previous negative.
