Again, via the generosity of John Plenzler, we have another mystery wedding photo.
Mystery Wedding Photo
Click the photo to get a larger version. There is no ID whatsoever for this photo, there is not even a studio identification on the photo. However, I think the best man looks quite a bit like Raymond Przybylski. Compare and see if you agree! As usual, if you have any idea who these people may be, let me know. Drop a comment here or drop me an email and I’ll follow up. Also, if anyone knows the answer to these questions, I’d like to know: Was there a period when wedding photos were taken in studios? If so, were the photos actually taken the day of the marriage or were they taken before? It seems many of the wedding photos I’ve seen from my parents’ generation and prior have been studio settings. This was not a practice when I was married 30+ years ago–wedding photos and portraits were usually taken at church or at the reception afterwards.

Could the best man be my distant cousin Anthony Robakowski?

I’ll mention this to John. He and I are in contact fairly frequently–he has many photos that totally fascinate me but they often have incomplete identification, if any at all.

The groom certainly looks very handsome and dapper in that well-fitted suit. I love the backdrop too.
