Terry Richardson is know for his highly sexual images, but it has also been reported on a few occasions that he goes a little too far in order to achieve such a mood. Terry was photographing a new Diesel ad campaign when he stopped to take part in the photos himself, pulling down his pants and cover himself with just a hand. To top it off, the models all have their hands stuffed down their pants, while one guy holds up a phone which has a message that reads 'I Love Porn'.
Considering Richardson has previously been accused of sexual harassment, in particularly by models Rie Rasmussen and Jamie Peck, who seemed on the verge of pressing charges at the time, taking photos like this doesn't seem like a good idea. At the time of the allegations, Richardson claimed to be hurt by the reports:
“I just want to take a moment to say I’m really hurt by the recent and false allegations of insensitivity and misconduct. I feel fortunate to work with so many extraordinary people each and every day. I’ve always been considerate and respectful of the people I photograph and I view what I do as a real collaboration between myself and the people in front of the camera.”
The whole story hasn't surfaced for a while now, and Terry has been getting more work than ever - has he gone too far, or is it all part of his persona?
