Terry Richardson shoots Barack Obama



You might know or recognize Terry Richardson's photographs from Tom Ford's recent campaigns, Justin Timberlake's FutureSex/LoveSounds cover, or even Diesel's Global Warming Ready Ads. Regardless, when Terry pops open his lens cover, nothing but brilliance rolls out. Most of the stuff he does is more on the wild side (just Google Image his name). Genius, but definitely out there. So it really came as a surprise to me to see him shooting a political figure such as good old Barack. I guess it seems like the art industry as a whole, which of course includes fashion, has gravitated to his cool guy style and no nonsense look. Even the editors at GQ like him, and they don't like anybody. Anyways, check out the pictures and see what you think.

Ps. Google Image Tom Ford and Terry Richardson...I dare you.
