BIO

Avery’s photography first surfaced in New York in the late 1990’s and was described as “brilliant, innovative, imaginative, ageless and hip” by both art and fashion critics worldwide. His photographs brought him instant commercial success as well as a growing reputation and legions of fans. It also brought him an admirer that would change his world forever – Juli Ashton

World-renowned adult entertainment icon Juli Ashton discovered Avery’s work during one of her many visits to New York and was able to arrange a meeting with the young artist. She had initially been attracted by Richard’s remarkable fashion photography that always seemed to have an erotic twist and immediately sensed that his future might lay in a slightly different, somewhat more provocative direction.

It was in January of 2006 when the highly anticipated partnership of Ashton and Avery finally came to a culmination and the ever exclusive, Juliland.com, was created. Contemporary, stylish, clean, sexy, nasty and most of all fun, Juliland.com has reinvented the genre of erotic media. The crazy universe of Juliland would be absolutely nothing without Avery. He was not only devilishly handsome and outrageously talented, but an excellent chef, lover, and the sickest fuck you will ever meet. These qualities paired with his killer instincts made Juliland.com an unstoppable-force. The Juliland Universe brought rise to over 20 websites… JulilandTV.com, JulilandRadio.com, PornStarLifeCoach.com, AshGirl.com, BadBentley.com, RichardAveryPhoto.com, EvilAiden.com and many more. In the words of Richard Avery, “the Juliland Universe is much more than a website or a place to find naked girls, it’s a family and an experience… It’s like Disneyland for adults. How would you not want to come inside?” (Pun intended)

Richard passed away on October 1st, 2023. A huge loss for family, friends and fans. Richard worked hard and played even harder. He always said he would die young and he always followed through on everything he said. Richard knew the only way to truly play was fast and hard. He was bold, crazy, brilliant and most of all passionate about his work and life. He said it best… “If it’s not going to be fun, then I’m not showing up!”
