David Yarrow

Tusk Affiliated Photographer

David Yarrow is now recognised as the world’s best-selling photographer of his genre. In recent years, he has found his true comfort zone in capturing the animal and human world in a fresh and creative way, with philanthropy and conservation central to his passion to document. Since 2019, charitable donations from the sale of David’s images exceeded $10 million.

Yarrow’s photography of life on earth is most distinctive and it has earned him an ever growing following amongst art collectors. Yarrow is now represented by some of the top contemporary art galleries around the world and in the last three years, three of Yarrow’s works have sold for over $100,000 at Sotheby’s auctions in London and New York. Berenberg Bank have also appointed David as their global ambassador.

David Yarrow’s last book was a 368-page monograph which showcased 150 of his strongest images and featured a foreword by Tom Brady and an afterword by Cindy Crawford. All royalties are donated to conservation charities Tusk and WildAid.

David’s latest book Storytelling features over 130 of David Yarrow’s images taken since 2019. The book features a foreword written by American cultural icon Cindy Crawford. David and Cindy’s collaboration has allowed them to raise over $3 million so far for the UW Health Kids Cancer Care Charity.

At the start of 2020, David was in Australia documenting the devastating bush fires that have destroyed communities, wildlife, and wildlands. Using the striking and poignant images that he captured of the effects of the fire, Yarrow launched the #KoalaComeback Campaign to support the recovery efforts in Australia. As of early June, the campaign has raised $1.4m.

In April 2020, during the Covid-19 pandemic, David joined the Art For Heroes campaign, to raise money for the NHS. He released a print – Our Pride – with all proceeds going to HEROES. For every print purchased, David donated an Our Pride print to an NHS worker. The campaign has surpassed its original target of £1m.

David Yarrow’s images remind us of the beauty of the natural world and why we cannot be the generation that allows these iconic African species to disappear.
