    You’re missing my whole point.

    He’s using his position as a high profile photographer to get young girls to do drugs and sexual favours for him…when he’s in that mode he’s not a photographer and he’s producing crap photography. Though those in the porn industry would think differently I’m sure.

    When you look at his body of work as a whole…..well, most of it is crap. I’m sorry but it is. It’s him getting his jollies off and taking advantage of young girls. Even the stuff that’s not considered crap is questionable. (BTW, his body of work is not just on his main website..he’s got many websites)

    If you didn’t know who Miley was and you didn’t know who Richardson was and you saw those photos from the page I posted above, those images would be candidates for the front page of this website. But you guys are excusing him because he’s photographed famous people… so he must be good.

    I’m sorry but that doesn’t wash with me. I’m calling him out as a Fauxtographer. Emperor’s new clothes and all.

    PS….Very sad, people say they don’t like what he does but that they recognize and respect his work as a professional. This is why he gets away with taking advantage of young inexperienced girls, getting naked during shoots and asking them for hand jobs, doing drugs during shoots…etc. It’s not just him either….sadly there are many….another rather famous photographer has recently been outed and he’s finally being banned from certain groups where he preys on unsuspecting models. Now his work was amazing and one to aspire too. Sadly he couldn’t keep it in his pants.

    PPS….by not holding these photographers responsible and saying that you respect them as a photographer you are in effect part of the problem. You are helping them to victimize young inexperienced young people by making it difficult for these models to come forward and making it difficult for them to say no.

    Guys like these give photographers a bad name.

    Yes, he’s done some good photography…but not all his work is good. And those images of Miley are examples of crap photography, I don’t care what the photographer’s name is. Just because you are world renowned for producing famous photos of famous people for famous magazines (and videos too) doesn’t mean that they can’t produce crap. This is a fine example.

    It doesn’t take much of a google search to turn up horror stories of model’s and MUA’s experiences with him. Try googling ‘the old terry richardson’. Warning, NSFW. Shocking images of him with many different models in many different sexual situations. He crosses the line. You’re not suppose to get naked with your models and preform sexual acts with them. A lot of those girls look so young too.  It disturbs me that people idolize him so much. I could never respect someone like him as a photographer.

    Nope, not buying it, he’s a sleaze bag. And that is crap photography. If he wasn’t famous for being a sleaze bag getting his jollies from young girls I might think differently. Might…but probably not.

    He’s using photography and his fame for photographing high profile people for high profile magazines to seduce young girls into getting naked and doing sexual favours for him. (I cleaned that up as best I could) In my opinion this makes him the worst kind of ‘fauxtog’ there is.

    I honestly don’t understand why this doesn’t upset people.

    Quick google and I found out way more than I ever wanted to know about the guy. He’s known for abusing his young models sexually…and taking photographs of it! So, as it turns out, he’s the worst kind of fauxtog.

    I’m sorry, I know he’s famous and has worked with a lot of famous people but those photos are total crap. There’s not even anything artistic about them. They’re not even so bad they’re good. Come on, red eye? Out of focus? His shoe in the reflection between her legs? If any of us had produced work like that and put our name on it we’d be on the front page of this website.
