Opera Frequently Asked Questions

Let us know if we missed any questions - we will add them to our list!

Are the photos posted to this web site all of the photos?
No, we weed down the selection to the ones we think are the best. We do keep in mind the different ways that the photographs are often used when we make our selection. Some of the different people who are often interested in photographs are;

  • Chorus members
  • Principles
  • Creative director
  • Lighting designer
  • Costume Designers
  • Opera for archive and promotional material

If you think we might have taken a photo and not chosen it for the web gallery feel free to give us a call. If it is easy to research we are happy to do this at no charge, if it gets complicated there is a $25 research fee. If you would like to come in to our studio to view the photographs / do the research yourself, you are welcome to. Viewing in our studio is always no charge, an appointment is suggested.

Are photos from every opera available to purchase?
Yes, operas before Faust 2003 are on film, so they are available for viewing only in our studio. If you cannot come in we can do the research for you for a fee of $25.

How long will the photos be posted?
We hope to keep all photos on line forever, but we promise a minimum of 6 months from the date of the opera.

How do I save a photo to my computer?
With windows you right click and choose 'Save As' os 'Save Image As'. With Mac you opt-click to bring up the context sensitive menu.
