David Lerch is a nordic wildlife photographer.

David Lerch's work in the Arctic involves producing images for the marketing of various eco-tour operators, collaborating with local galleries for specific exhibitions about Arctic wildlife, and, in particular, continuing his main project on Arctic foxes called ‘Face to face with Arctic foxes’, which is exhibited in the Reykjavík city Library in Spöngin.

The main goal of David's wildlife photography is to bridge the gap between humans and nature by getting at the animal's eye level and therefore creating a very direct kind of intimacy between the subject and its viewer. This is also especially intended to sensitise the audience to the high fragility and necessary protection of the Arctic regions
