High Key Photography: So, high key photography is like when you take pictures that are all bright and stuff. It's all about making everything look super well-lit with no harsh shadows. You use soft lighting and stuff to make the picture look all clean and airy. They use it a lot in fashion and product photos, you know, to make things look all fancy and pretty.  Low Key Photography: Low key photography is the opposite of high key, dude.
