Sometimes it seems as though I've waited my entirelife to bephotographed by Terry Richardson. With Terry,the relationshipextends beyond the photograph, andif you're really lucky he willteach you something trulyprofound about yourself. I have discoveredthrough himthat "shame" is an obsolete notion and "apology"is aninjustice to any performance. Perhaps it is hiskind eyes behindthose famous glasses, or the gigglingnoise he makes at 4:30 in themorning when he's caughtme in bed. Click, giggle, click, click,click, "beautiful." To sayhe is a free spirit is a tremendousunderstatement, andto say that he (or I) make people uncomfortable,is spot on.We share these things in common. However, it is uniquetoTerry and his subjects that there are no limitations.At all. Hisheart is too wide. He makes me wantto widen my own.
