    I was intrigued to pick up these images because of how young these couples look! It definitely put me into a time warp. The only information I have is "J.A. Mauricette, Photo Arts, 184 Eastern Main Road, Barataria" which leads me to believe that at least the one on the left was taken in Louisiana. I'm not too good at spotting era trends yet...anyone know when this might have been? My inking is the 1950s? Early 60s? Am I way off here? Check out those elaborate bouquets! Pretty sure these are large format, 4x5 images. Love the length of the dress in the photo on the left, definitely adds that feeling of innocence I'm getting from the youth of these newlyweds.

      I think your couple in Barataria are not in Louisiana, but Trinidad. They do look very young don't they? Great pictures.

      Sweet pictures! Whilst I have no idea on the year you're looking for, I have a photo taken in Trinidad by J.A. Mauricette, Photo Arts, 184 Eastern Main Road, Barataria. This would have been any time from the 1940s onwards.
