Tips on Chorus and Quartet Photographs:

The Full Chorus Photo

Full chorus photos are taken on stage during performances. The official full chorus photograph from each round of competition is available in a variety of sizes and prices. The photographer strives to capture each chorus during its closing pose to give competitors a story-telling, action photo that shows the faces of as many chorus members as possible and has the director facing the camera. This action photo captures the essence of the international competition experience although it may not show the face of every member.

The Chorus Proof Set

Another option available to competing choruses is the proof set. It includes approximately 10 4-inch x 6-inch, machine-printed candid photos, taken on the international stage during competition. These photos are taken in the photo-journalistic style and tell stories about the chorus and its competition experience. Individual chorus members may purchase prints. Choruses may purchase them to project accurate images of the art form and chorus in promotional materials and publicity.

The Posed Quartet Photo

A posed quartet photograph is taken on site preceding each round of performance. The session is long enough for four posed photos to be made. It is the responsibility of a competing quartet to practice its poses prior to facing the camera. Poses may range from traditional to comedic, depending upon the quartetís needs and its personality.

The Quartet Proof Set

Another option available to competing quartets is the proof set. It includes approximately 10 4-inch, machine-printed candid photos, taken on the international stage during competition. These photos are taken in the photo-journalistic style and they tell stories about the quartet and its competition experience.

On-Site Prints

Photos of performances will be on sale at the competition site.
