These photos were taken by David Lachapelle. This is his style, and I’ve found that a lot of his shoots are not about the subject, but about the fact that Lachapelle is shooting them. Celebrities seek him out more often than not.

These images are actually rather mild for him. In 2002 he shot a campaign for Lavazza coffee, and one of the images was a nude woman being driven on by toy dump trucks as they poured sugar and beans on her privates. Another involved a woman humping the air while grasping two rockets with the coffee brand on them, as an oiled bodybuilder flexed in the background.

It’s not my cup of tea (or coffee), but he’s gotten pretty darn famous for doing what he loves, so more power to him.
