Terry Richardson pulls down $58M
Forget the rest of the article. Check the part near the bottom: "Richardson has shot ad campaigns for top fashion houses from Tom Ford to Yves Saint Laurent and made a whopping $58 million between June 2012 and June 2013." http://gagadaily.com/index.php?showtopic=52518&st=0 Jul 13 13 12:57 am Link  Jul 13 13 12:59 am Link ChiMo wrote: lol Jul 13 13 01:02 am Link In 3, 2, 1...cue in the haters... Jul 13 13 01:05 am Link $58 million between June 2012 and June 2013. I'd like to know where and how they got those figures especially as the end of June was only a few weeks ago. $4+ million a month ! that's a calculation of shooting 12 months of the year. Jul 13 13 01:16 am Link Those figures must come from the NTSB. Jul 13 13 02:08 am Link ChiMo wrote: Uh huh. Jul 13 13 02:44 am Link Beautiful post, thank you! very motivating! Jul 13 13 02:53 am Link Well done Terry! If you have the skills, connections and associated brand/market value, then it makes sense to exploit it while you can. Fashion is mega big business so the money is there. You don't necessarily have to like him, but you've got to admit he's sitting in a very sweet spot indeed!

Jul 13 13 06:23 am Link Wow! A photographer that actually makes millions...must be nice!!! Now I see why people want to shoot Fashion...  Jul 13 13 06:26 am Link Yes, and they say there's no money in photography anymore... Jul 13 13 06:38 am Link I'll do it for....$5.8 million Jul 13 13 06:42 am Link Image Magik wrote: Sure not in TF shoots, I mean naked girls like most here are obsessed with. Jul 13 13 06:43 am Link I have a feeling that the total budget for those ad campaigns was $58 million dollars, he probably made maybe $5 million dollars, since we know that whatever the photographer gets is not likely to be 50% of the budget of a campaign, maybe 5% or 10% of the total budget. Either way good for him for making millions in one year. Jul 13 13 06:43 am Link Good for him If you can make that type of money. Why not making it then. Better than a lot of 9-5 jobs out here. Jul 13 13 06:48 am Link WTF!! Does he get indorsments from somewhere??? Does he have his own fragrance?? He can't be making that much just shooting. Maybe he does seminars!!:-))))))) Jul 13 13 06:49 am Link I wonder about those numbers as well, June just ended. I am sure he does gross millions, I am sure he has investments that allow him to never have to worry about working again. I am also sure he has a good accountant who would minimize his tax requirements and never show that kind of number as income or recomended he publish numbers.

Jul 13 13 07:57 am Link He does have a line of eyewear with Moscot. If he bills for usage he may be getting revenue from old shoots still. He's probably not making the bulk of that money from fashion shoots for American designers. Foreign companies will pay a lot for his celebrity status.
