Clara Azulay nee Isaac - Photographer

I am trying to find information on Clara Isaac (b. abt 1829 in London).I think she was a daughter of
Alex George Isaac (b. abt 1798 in City of London – before 1861) - Clerk to a Bead Merchant.
Clara Isaac married Issac Henry Azulay (b. 1845 in London, Middlesex - 1933 ?) in 1866 and they had 5 children.
I think he was a son of Maurice Azulay (b. 1814 in Germany) an Umbrella Maker?
He was a photographer and they lived in Knightsbridge and Holborn areas. I believe that Clara also became a photographer and they are shown as having a studio in Fleet Street from 1881 until 1882. In 1888, Clara divorces Issac and she moves with her children to Walton on the Naze, where she ran a Refreshment Rooms. In 1901 she is living in Walthamstow, East London.

Their son Albert Maurice (b. 1 Sep 1869 in St Pancras, Middlesex – d. 1958 in Honiton, Devon) sets up as a photographer in Walton on the Naze. In 1894 he marries Eva Roy (b. abt. 1874 in Walton-on-Naze, Essex – d. 20 Jul 1933 in Thorpe-Le-Soken, Essex) in Colchester, Essex.

Any leads on Isaac and Azulay Families welcome. I am not related, but am researching Essex Photographers.
Regards Bob
