a pioneering photographer.

"Daisy’s father John R Edis founded the highly successful photographic business in Durham, in the late 19th century. After his death daughter Daisy carried on the business, expanding its range of activities, including work, some of it highly technical, for Durham University.
Although Daisy was married as a young woman and became Mrs Spence, sadly her husband died after a few years and Daisy continued to use her maiden name of Edis by which she was well known."
