THE PHOTOGRAPHER/ PHOTOGRAPHIC STUDIO:

SUNSET STUDIO was established in Petaluma in February 1920 and was in operation until 1942. The studio had three owner/operators who were also photographers: Walter Kersey Waters, Wilfred J. Geoffroy, and Rupert Henry Wheldon. It has not been determined which of the three created this portrait.
