Born in Glasgow, Scotland, David Yarrow is now considered to be one of the best-selling photographers in the world. He is represented by over 40 galleries in America and Europe and over the last six years, sales of his work are in excess of $140m.
David refuses to be conveniently categorised within a genre of photography and his career, which started with the famous photograph of Diego Maradona in the World Cup in Mexico City in 1986, has taken him on a relentless journey around the world. His subject matters have included sports stars, wildlife, supermodels and frontier towns. Since Covid, he has spent much of his time working on a personal anthology of the Wild West of America and tried to tell new stories that entertain rather than teach. He identifies as a storyteller as much as he does a photographic specialist.
His last three books have been published by Rizzoli, New York with forewords written by the Duke of Cambridge, Tom Brady and Cindy Crawford. The royalty fees for these books have all been donated to David’s charity partners.
Philanthropy is core to the business culture of David Yarrow Photography and over the last seven years, over $13m has been raised for charities across the world. The focus was initially on conservation, but now there is more of a focus on health, and in particular, paediatric cancer care.
In 2023 the David Yarrow Family Foundation was established to raise further funds for cancer care and research, but also to support the arts in Scotland. The foundation is run by Jane Yarrow and David and Jane’s two children, Jade and Cameron.
David Yarrow Photography is based in London, but the print shop and studio are in Los Angeles, where David’s son Cameron spends much of his time overseeing the US business.
In 2019, David was flattered to receive the Great London Scot Award for Outstanding Achievement.
