Studio: Terry Richardson

- Throughout his career, Richardson has shot the campaigns of fashion brands and designers such as: Marc Jacobs, Aldo, Tom Ford, and Yves Saint Laurent. He has done work for magazines such as Rolling Stone, GQ, Vogue, Vanity Fair, Harper's Bazaar, i-D, and Vice.

- There are several repeating themes in Richardson's work, including putting high-profile celebrities in mundane situations and photographing them using traditional methods such as the use of an instant camera.

- His work also explores ideas of sexuality, with many of the pieces featured in his books involving full-frontal nudity and both simulated and actual sexual acts.Initially, many of Richardson's subjects would be shot before a white background but he eventually expanded to other backdrops. 

- Richardson is also known for his nonsexual portraiture. He has taken portraits of celebrities and politicians including Samuel L. Jackson, Gwyneth Paltrow, Jon Bon Jovi, Pharrell Williams, Daft Punk, and Barack Obama.

- Some models he has worked with, including Jamie Peck and Charlotte Waters, have accused Richardson of inappropriate sexual behaviour and exploiting young female models.
