TERRY RICHARDSON

   

I wanted to compare the difference between male and female photographers, the difference in posing, accessories, makeup, clothing etc. Terry Richardson is known for photographing stuff for his own desire and needs. Photographing down on the person from above are interpreted as making that person look small and insignificant. The black and white photo with the women below the man is showing that she is less important then the man and being looked down upon. You will find most of Terry Richardsons photos with the female model below the male model. It’s a way to show you’re superior or the boss. The poses on the other hand has been made to be so sexualised when there is no need, the fact that the model is staring right into the camera at the viewer delivers a stronger message to the audience, seems as if she wants to be looked at. Terry Richardson has used the female models for visual pleasure completely objectifying them and using them like sexual objects.
