Yes, *that* Henry Horenstein. Now on PhotoShelter

I don’t know about those kids who have only recently entered a photo program (read: all digital), but if you’ve taken a photo class in the past 30 years, you’ve probably run into Henry Horenstein’s bible of black and white photography.

Henry is a professor at the Rhode Island School of Design (RISD), and I had the pleasure of meeting him when he brought one of his classes to the PhotoShelter offices a few years ago to discuss the business of photography.

It just so happens that our DoP, Meagan Ziegler-Haynes, is one of Henry’s former students, and she started talking to him about the world of stock photography. So we’re thrilled to add Henry’s work to the 17,000 other photographers on the site — each with his/her own unique vision of the world.

His work on the human body is the first work that he’s uploaded and made available for licensing. I personally love it — perhaps because in this Photoshopped world, it’s cool to see imperfections that are so, well, human.

Check out his PSC Portfolio. Maybe Wrigley Mars should license one of these for a chewing gum ad…
