Terry was invited to be the official photographer for Nelson Mandela’s visit to London in celebration of his 90th Birthday. “It was one of the highlights of my career, photographing him with some of the most powerful people in politics, show business and sport. It is no surprise so many influential people came to visit him; Nelson Mandela is the most fantastic man, and the whole experience was humbling.”
