High key photography involves creating images where there is a dominance of white or bright tones. It is a type of photography that goes against most “traditional” styles of nature photography and requires the right circumstances – the right light, subject, and setting—in order for the magic of High Key photography to work. But when it does, the results can be spectacular!
