If you have not done so, have a look at Eclipsing Binary Stars 1.0a2,
Dan Bruton's Windows program that computes light curves using a spherical
star model (http://www.physics.sfasu.edu/astro/binstar.html). Using some
very simple assumptions, I could get a very reasonable first pass visual fit
to your light curve - specifically  pointed minima and broader symmetric
maxima.

Have fun!

 Period analysis or binary modeling is something I have no experience with.
