Storytelling: David Yarrow cover

For more than two decades, legendary British photographer David Yarrow has created evocative photography of some of the world s most iconic personalities, sporting moments, and endangered wildlife. With his images raising huge sums for charity, he is one of the most relevant and best-selling photographers in the world today. This stunning volume is a retrospective of Yarrow s storytelling work, which has earned him wide acclaim in the fine-art market. This assemblage of truly unmatched work brings the magic and brilliance of the big screen to each singular image. Inspired by the great cinematic directors, Yarrow tells stories from the Wild West to the pirates of the Caribbean, the coasts of Alaska to the plains of Africa, Manhattan to an old saloon in Montana. Whether poignant, dramatic, or provocative, they are always epic. Offering additional insight are behind-the-scenes photos and Yarrow s own first-person contextual narratives. The book features a mix of more than 150 yet-to-be-published and already iconic photographs, including work from assignments with some of the biggest names and brands in fashion, sports, and culture, like Cindy Crawford, Cara Delevingne, Russell Wilson, Ciara, and Alessandra Ambrosio.

"The British photographer and philanthropist presents a retrospective collection of his narrative-driven work, gathering over 150 cinematic images from the plains of Africa, the coasts of Alaska, an old saloon in Montana and much more." —NEW YORK TIMES BOOK REVIEW

"Yarrow’s newest book, Storytelling, showcases a career-defining glimpse at his unique chronicle of work. And in a full-circle moment, Yarrow’s early muse, solidified supermodel, and long-time collaborator Cindy Crawford wrote the foreword. Inspired by legendary directors Martin Scorsese, Steven Spielberg, and Clint Eastwood, the book is a mixture of iconic and unpublished photographs, with the likes of Cara Delevingne, Ciara, and Alessandra Ambrosio splashing the pages throughout.
Storytelling is an evocative look at the legacy of the photographer, seen through his one true love: image-making." —V MAGAZINE

"Published by Rizzoli, the lavishly illustrated volume includes a foreword by Crawford and features pictures of Yarrow at work around the world. In some, he can be seen submerged in water or lying on the ground with his camera at the feet of a grizzly bear; the images are dazzling, shocking, and often awe-inspiring." —ARTNET

“Looking to spruce up your coffee table appeal? Renowned photographer David Yarrow has joined forces with Rizzoli to feature over 130 never-before-published images that have been shot over the past three years, and in suitable fashion, the foreword is penned by Cindy Crawford. As the name suggests, Storytelling is a retrospective of Yarrow’s storytelling work, with images inspired by the big screen and iconic film directors, as he showcases his own cinematic stories featuring the likes of Cara Delevingne and Alessandra Ambrosio. Expect a collection of evocative and poignant images that exude dramatic adventure from the American West to the plains of Africa and the coasts of Alaska.” —FORBES
