Terry Richardson Starts a Fire for Calibre

— February 19, 2009 — Fashion
While famed controversial photographer Terry Richardson seems to have toned down his racy style in recent photo shoots, he still managed to produce a sizzling ad campaign for Calibre that was literally on fire.

The Calibre Spring Summer 2008 ad campaign features a playful Chad White playing with a monkey, making cheeky poses, reading a newspaper that’s on fire, and trying to put out that fire by dripping water from his mouth.
