David Yarrow, born in Glasgow in 1966, began his photography career early, gaining recognition at just 20 for his iconic image of Diego Maradona at the World Cup Final in Mexico City. Though he started in sports photography, Yarrow later found his true calling in capturing the natural world, developing a distinctive and immersive style that has earned him global acclaim and a strong following among art collectors.

Today, Yarrow is regarded as one of the most successful fine art photographers of his generation, with his works fetching high prices at Sotheby’s, including record sales of $100,000 and $110,000. His industry influence is reflected in roles as an ambassador for organizations like WildArk, Tusk, Nikon, UBS, and Land Rover.

Yarrow has published several acclaimed photography books, including Storytelling and his second monograph with Rizzoli, both combining striking imagery with personal narratives and contributions from icons like Tom Brady and Cindy Crawford. His philanthropic efforts, particularly in conservation and children’s healthcare, have raised millions, underscoring both his artistic impact and commitment to meaningful causes.
