I have been following Terrell Lloyd on Instagram for as long as I can remember, and when I got the chance to meet him at this year’s WPPI I was a bit star struck. Terrell is the Sr. manager of Photography, and Lead Team Photographer, for the San Francisco 49ers. His work is next level amazing.

Along with working for the 49ers, where he started as a contract photographer in 1996, Terrell has been the athletic sports photographer for San Jose State University, providing all of their photographic services, for 14 years. And the best part is that Terrell, as the photographer, actually championship rings too! He has earned a number of them for his work with San Jose University as well as two NFC Championships with the San Francisco 49ers for his work and services. Terrell even has rings for his time on the professional bowlers tour and leagues, with several perfect 300 games and 800 series.

Obviously, with these credentials, Terrell has made it to the absolute top of the photography world. He is a Canon Explorer of Light, a group of top professional photographers from around the world selected to provide educational programs around the country. The Canon Explorers share their photographic and technical expertise to a wide number of photographers in a variety of personal appearances, seminars gallery shows, and luckily for me – podcasts. SanDisk® choose Terrell Lloyd in 2009 to the newly formed SanDisk Extreme Team, and he was selected for the ThinkTankPhoto Pro Team in 2018.

As with most artists of Terrell’s caliber, his talents span various genres. His clients include BMW, Yahoo, Intuit, Ritz Carlton Hotel, NetApp, Verizon, Canon USA and SanDisk®. He has covered NFL Super Bowl’s, PGA Golf, Professional Tennis, MLB Baseball, the NBA and more.

Join Canon Explorer of Light Terrell Lloyd and me as we chat about how he gets the unique angles he does while shooting under the high pressure of an NFL football game, on this Behind the Shot.
