Searching for a unique Valentine’s gift can be a tricky task. Instead of opting for the standard box of chocolates and flowers, we’ve got some suggestions that will turn up the heat this February! Henry’s School of Imaging has partnered with Jen Rozenbaum – the eye, talent and force behind Jenerations, New York’s Premier Boudoir Photography Studio. With a “sixth sense” for the aesthetics of boudoir photography, Rozenbaum aims to empower women with a renewed sense of self-confidence and beauty. This Valentine’s Day, we’ve teamed up with Jen to offer the dos and don’ts of achieving stunning couples’ DIY boudoir photography. 

It isn’t every day that photographers ranging from top industry leaders to amateurs gather in the same place to learn and share ideas, but when it happens, Henry’s calls it Portrait Perfect. I had the opportunity to attend this incredibly enlightening event and was so impressed by the quality of information and intrigue of the presentations, I wanted to share the top three things I learned throughout the day.
