David Yarrow was born in Glasgow, Scotland in 1966. He took up photography at an early age and as a 20-year-old found himself working as a photographer for The London Times on the pitch at the World Cup Final in Mexico City. On that day, David took the famous picture of Diego Maradona holding the World Cup and as a result, he was subsequently asked to cover the Olympics and numerous other sporting events. Yarrow refused to be pigeonholed and his interests expanded as he grew into himself. It was only many years later that he found his true comfort zone in documenting the natural world and the last eight years have been career defining. David Yarrow’s evocative and immersive photography of life on earth is most distinctive and has earned him an ever growing following amongst art collectors. He has an undeniable aptitude for capturing the splendor of what remains wild and free in our world. Yarrow is one of the most relevant and compelling photographers in the world today and has firmly established himself as one of the bestselling fine art photographers of this generation. Yarrow’s work has sold remarkably over the years at Sotheby’s auction house. In 2018, “The Wolf of Main Street” sold for $100,000, which was the highest bid for a piece by a living photographer. Most recently “78 Degrees North” went for an even more impressive $110,000. These statistics reinforce the current value and rising trajectory of David’s work. Yarrow’s position in the industry has been rewarded with a wide range of advisory and ambassadorial roles. In conservation, he is an ambassador for WildArk and on the advisory board of Tusk. In luxury goods, he was appointed a global ambassador and creative partner for Land Rover, he is the European ambassador for Nikon and has been appointed as the global ambassador for UBS bank. The release of Yarrow’s second book, published by Rizzoli Bookstore, is a 368-page photography monograph, which showcases 150 of his strongest images from the past two years. The book features a first-person narrative weaved through the pages, with a foreword written by global NFL star Tom Brady and an afterword written by American cultural icon Cindy Crawford. All royalties from this book will be donated to conservation charities Tusk, in the UK and WildAid, in the US. David's latest book, Storytelling features over 130 of David Yarrow's images taken since 2019, including the famous Iron Horse image featured on the cover of the book. 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. Yarrow continues to regularly produce new and exciting releases and engage in a variety of philanthropic endeavors. F.A.Q.What lens does David Yarrow use to capture photography? David makes the bold choice, uncommon to most wildlife photographers, of using a wide lens to capture his photography. Unlike most photographers of this caliber who opt in for a long lens to capture far away subjects, Yarrow fearlessly gets close enough to the subject, whether it be a lion or polar bear, and uses his wide lens to capture the shot, therefor not sacrificing any of the details and leaving us with the incredibly textured and realistic photography he creates. How does David Yarrow get to the locations he photographs at? David Yarrow prioritizes a few things in his photography, particularly the rarity of the location he is capturing, and even more so, the relationship he builds with the communities in those remote locations. Yarrow does an incredible amount of research before each of his sessions, and he takes the time and makes the effort to learn about the cultures and terrains of these otherwise not typically captured places. Thanks to Yarrow, we get to see the things unseen, and those places and people receive the recognition they deserve. Is Samuel Lynne Galleries the only Gallery that represents David Yarrow in Texas? Samuel Lynne Galleries is the only gallery in Texas that represents David Yarrow, and we are proud to note that of the many galleries worldwide that Yarrow is represented in, Samuel Lynne Galleries is Yarrow’s number one selling gallery worldwide.
