I was selected again this year to create the images for the MN Opera's brochures and posters. It's just fun to go around the Twin Cities and see huge posters of your work on bus stops and on buildings. As an artist, it's just grand....
This image was shot for the opera Bizet's "The Pearl Fishers," full of daytime TV drama, three people in love and one must die....

Brenda Harris is the Star in Donizetti's "Roberto Devereux" and our model for this image. She was a joy to work with and her sense of humor keep us all laughing (checkout the out-takes below). She's playing the part of Queen Elizabeth 1st and the tragic love affair with Robert Devereux, Earl of Essex. Again, a tragic ending to the Earl's life by a woman's scorn.

Strauss's "Salome" (lots of s's there) is the scandalously erotic Biblical story of obsession and vengeance, and a guy losses his head.

Out takes: Yes it was a long day and photo shoots aren't always exciting, life must go on...
