In 2019, a photograph from the »Wolf of Wall Street« series signed by Oscar winners Leonardo DiCaprio and Martin Scorsese sold for a sum of $200,000. David Yarrow's works also fetch impressive prices on the secondary art market and are achieving record results at auctions—including Sotheby’s.

The works of the photo artist are represented in internationally renowned museums and public and private collections. David Yarrow’s collector base runs deep in both professional sport and in Hollywood—NFL star Tom Brady wrote the foreword to his last book, and Cindy Crawford will be writing the same section for his new book, which will be released this autumn.

David Yarrow was born in Glasgow in 1966. His passion for photography began early in his life. As a 20-year- old, he worked for »The London Times« and took the legendary portrait of the jubilant trophy winner Diego Maradona at the World Cup final in Mexico City. It was not until many years later that Yarrow turned to artistic photography and dedicated himself to a new subject: nature and its wildlife. This decision was to have a lasting impact on his career.

David Yarrow's evocatively  nature photographs and haunting animal portraits are a distinctive and imposing documentation of the ephemeral and captivating beauty of our planet, which the photographer is deeply commijed to preserving. Consequently, contributions to charitable institutions  and environmental organizations from the sale of David Yarrow’s work have reached £5 million in just two years from 2020 to the present. Yarrow's dedication to photography is also grounded in his passion for storytelling, which he translates into masterfully staged projects. He has collaborated with world-famous models such as Cindy Crawford and Cara Delevingne, singer and Grammy Award winner Ciara, and the »Wolf of Wall Street,« Jordan Belfort, among others. With them, he created theme-based photo series, upon which the artist based entire scripts. These monumental portraits, in which Yarrow also offers animals a stage, are a homage to the moving image, the cinema. Each of these works manages to tell a story in a striking way, with Yarrow increasingly combining wildlife photography and staged photography with a unique ductus.
