Controversial Celebrity Photographers

Terry's Room on Belvedere

Terry Richardson, who worked with Belvedere on their controversial Luxury Reborn campaign, has now launched a section called “Terry's Room” on the Belvedere website.

Heavy on f-bombs, Terry talks about the importance of having a connection with the people he photographs in an online video. In his Terry's Room interview, he dons a plaid shirt and black nerd glasses while sporting a mustache and prominent side burns. Terry's Room plays host to three videos and nine exclusive photos which look like they were taken at a retro swinger's party.

Here are a few more projects shot by Richardson, including the latest Belvedere campaign:
