Glossary Of Photography Terms

Low Key Low key refers to a style of photography characterized by predominantly dark tones and a subdued color palette. In low key photography, the majority of the image is comprised of shadows and midtones, with minimal highlights. Low key images often evoke moodiness, drama, and mystery, relying on contrast and selective lighting to create visual impact and emphasize specific elements within the frame.
Low key lighting techniques involve using controlled lighting setups, such as spotlights, snoots, or grids, to selectively illuminate the subject while leaving the background and surrounding areas in shadow. Low key photography is commonly used in genres such as portraits, fine art photography, and film noir, where the emphasis is on storytelling, atmosphere, and emotional expression. |
