Terri Gold is an award-winning photographer & artist known for her poetic imagery of rituals, rites of passage, festivals, celebrations and portraits from all over the world.

She has always had a passion to visually capture the rituals that define our lives and to create images that explore our human connections as they are being made. Photographing festivals and sacred sites in Southeast Asia, and throughout the world, she looks to capture the wonder and grace in the celebrations of life and in the artifacts and architecture that remain. The work is an exploration of our cross-cultural truths; the importance of family, community and ritual and the amazing diversity of its expression.

“My earliest memories are of spinning a globe, always drawn to the last mysterious corners of the world. My work is interpretive in nature. I am looking for the grace notes, for the sense of wonder in our world and in our connections to each other. I feel compelled to make these images. I believe images that share our stories can have a positive impact on our world. We need to experience our common humanity. We all celebrate the same joys, we all bleed the same too…”
