Weekly Mission #5: Thumbs up

This mission is all about how we do the Terry. Take a self-portrait or portray someone else with the same smile and that thumb pointing right up.

Thumbs up for Terry!

Wait, you don’t know Terry? Well, now you do! Terry Richardson is a (the) photographer who became famous for his trademark (the thumbs), often provocative photographs of models and celebrities. Mainly using a simple Yashica T4 analog camera, he’s jet-setting around the world photographing celebrities, sharing some of his shots on his widely popular blog Terry’s diary.

What’s the Terry?

The Terry is the pose that became Terry Richardson’s trademark. Thumbs up and a charming smile – that’s how Terry does the Terry.

We want YOU to do the Terry!

Take a self-portrait or portray someone else with the same smile and that thumb pointing right up and help us get Terry Richardson on board to give us a thumbs up himself. Submit your shots to the albumthumbs upby Monday, July 16. The 25 best photos will get featured on our blog and get Terry’s blessing.

P.S. Please feel free to give Terry a heads up over at @Terry_World!
