York Hovest

York Hovest, born 1978 in Germany, internationally successful photographer, lives in Munich and works all over the world. Touched by a personal meeting with the Dalai Lama in 2011 and inspired by his moving words, he turns his back on fashion photography and embarks on the most adventurous journey of his life, which takes him to Tibet.

In 2014, the accompanying bestseller illustrated book “100 Days of Tibet” will be published under the patronage of National Geographic.

After the resounding success of the first book, the second illustrated book “100 Days of Amazonia” will be published in 2016. For this York Hovest went into the partly still untouched depths of the rainforest area at the legendary Amazon. 

After several successful lecture tours throughout Germany, the Munich native is now devoting himself to his third and largest project to date. 

The oceans of our world. On the search for the “heroes of the seas” York accompanies scientists, visionaries and forward thinkers whose innovative and sustainable solutions could be a guideline for us to save the oceans. The overarching goal is to raise awareness and provide critical insight into topics that ultimately concern everyone.
