Terry Richardson, Legend.

As an amateur photographer myself, it's important to know and respect the forefathers of photography, as to do otherwise would be ignorant.



Terry Richardson is an international celebrity as well as one of the most prolific and compelling photographers of his generation. Known for his uncanny ability to cut to the raw essence of whomever appears before his lens, Mr. Richardson's vision is at once humorous, tragic, often beautiful, and always provocative.
