Sophia Hoare (also known as Mrs S. Hoare, Madame S. Hoare, Suzanne Hoare, Susan Hoare), born Johnson, was a 19th-century British photographer operating in Tahiti.[1]
She married Charles Burton Hoare, June 1853 in Manchester. They lived in Hulme outside Manchester and got three daughters, Elizabeth, Louisa, and Octavia. In March 1863 they traveled with the Telegraph ship from London to Auckland, New Zealand.[2] Some time in the next few years, Charles, together with a certain Wooster, established a photo firm under the name of Hoare & Wooster.[1] Wooster had a studio, "The Royal Photographic Rooms" which lay in the corner of Vulcan Lane and Queen Street. The partnership ended in 1866 and Charles started a firm in his own name, also on Vulcan Street.[1]
