Distinguished Speaker Terry Boyd

Terry Boyd has been driving and photographing across North America from Arkansas to Alaska for the past 15 years. He leads photography workshops and tours yearly in Alaska May to September.

Terry grew up in Arkansas and spent his younger years mountain biking and fishing. In his early 20s he bought a used 35mm camera. He knew absolutely nothing about photography and had never even touched a camera with more than one button before. The first time he photographed a sunset from a bluff over the Arkansas River, he knew this was the path for him. Since then, he has dedicated his life to the light, doing his best to be in the right place at the right time. He first traveled to Alaska in 2003 and has returned every summer since, working in a variety of positions until beginning a photography tour business in 2010.
