Adolphe Duperly (1801–1865) was a French engraver, lithographer and printer who settled in Kingston, Jamaica, and who produced daguerreotypes and then founded a photography business.

Duperly was born in Paris, but was in Jamaica in the 1830s and produced a lithograph of the 1831 Baptist War and the emancipation celebrations in Kingston in 1838. He also provided a pictorial chronicle of African-Caribbean people in the 1830s. During the 1840s he published a collection of daguerreotypes of Jamaica.[1]

He established Adolphe Duperly and Sons, which became the most successful photography business in Jamaica. The company was continued after his death by his son, Armond, and grandson Théophile.[2] The companies original premises was destroyed by fire in 1907. From 1909 their studio was 85 King Street, Kingston.[3]
