Cool + Cool = Cooler. Barack Obama photographed by Terry Richardson

Date
9 November 2012

The words “best teeth in the business” don’t get bandied around too often, but I think in this case we should all raise a glass (of Listerine) to Obama’s snowy gnashers that potentially had something to do with his recent win. Terry Richardson, undoubtedly the world’s coolest photographer previously coaxed the now re-elected president into his studio to do this shoot which, to be quite frank, is perfect. I’m not afraid to admit I’ve got a huge crush on both of these men, but that aside it’s still great because it shows exactly what they both do best — Obama whacks out that smile and Terry throws a camera about, with winning results.
