>>3655740Terry Richardson. He’s a very famous fashion/portrait photographer and pervert, well known for using the “snapshot aesthetic” (Ie, shooting with a little point and shoot 35mm film camera with the on-camera flash against a plain wall. Gives a sort of gritty, real-life look, compared to highly produced photos taken with high end gear in a more formal manner, which is good for conveying raw emotion in a shoot).
He’s also well known for whipping his dick out during photoshoots and pressuring models into performing sex acts on him. Not in an obvious rape “I’m gonna hold you down and fuck you while you scream no” way, but in a “this is just how the industry is, you want to get ahead, I’m a famous photographer, I can help you get ahead. See, my assistant is even encouraging you and putting my penis in your mouth. This is normal. This is all normal. You don’t want to go back to obscurity and die alone in rural Kansas, do you? No, you want to be a famous and successful LA model. This is how you do that” way.
It was all very “... because of the *implication*”.
Anyway, when it came out that he was doing that shit, he got blackballed from all reputable publications, and /p/ (which had previously excoriated him because they hate snapshot aesthetic) started venerating him because they love sexual assault.
