Theatrical photography is an artistic vision of other arts, in this case stage performance and all the artistic elements that make it up (costume design, scenography, props, lighting design, etc.). Through a brief historical overview, we get an insight into how photography has affected the image of the actor in society, but also, where else is it important whether on stage or outside of it. The paper goes through theoretical reflections on theatrical photography as a document for the analysis of a theatrical act, and as a medium with features that go beyond documentation. Dramaturgical research of the society and its implementation in stage performances, enable infiltration of photography into theatrical performance. This thesis gives examples of this type of intermediality of theatrical photography. The act of capturing a dramatic performance can take place in a theater hall in controlled (but unpredictable) lighting conditions or, less frequently, under natural light, during daytime performances. The experimental part of the paper goes through some basic camera specifications and shows their interdependence and how they behave in low light conditions typical of theatrical performance. The audience experiences theatrical performance in different ways, so it is so interesting to go through some framing rules that give a certain dramatic acpect of theatrical performances outside the theater - in photography.
