Low key or high key? For artistic nudes, I love low key, as it allows to play with light and shadows, carving out the shapes of the body.
But sometimes there is a model that needs to be shot in high key, as too dark tomes would be too much for the fragile body. Allen is such a case where high key just works.
Just a bit of darkness is enough in this case to shape her body. Allena shows us something else that is quite important to me: Her natural beauty demands that one stays away from (too much) makeup and from Photoshop.
I think it is much more interesting to see her how she is than to look at the result of some AI-powered Instagram algorithm that just creates Barbie dolls.
So let’s enjoy the beauty of the (female) body as naturally as possible. In high key, and in low key, too.
