Avanipok: A Photobook of Dazzling Nature by Conor McDonnell

Conor McDonnell, a renowned photographer, has a knack for capturing the essence of the world around him. His work is a testament to his ability to see beauty in the ordinary and the extraordinary alike. His photobook, "Avanipok," is a stunning collection of wildlife photography that takes viewers on a journey through the natural world. Each page is a testament to McDonnell's talent and passion for photography, offering a glimpse into the breathtaking beauty of nature.

Avanipok by @ConorMcDonnell is quite simply the best photography we’ve seen in a long time. Mind-blowingly brilliant wildlife photography on each page.

I would strongly recommend you buy a copy...but they all sold out in 20 minutes and crashed the website 🙂

The Making of Avanipok

The creation of "Avanipok" was made possible through a fusion of Conor's top class photography and the exceptional photobook printing services of Ex Why Zed. The A5 book, with its 4pp cover onto 300gsm Uncoated and Matt Lamination to outer, is a testament to the quality of our HP Indigo digital press. The 62pp Text onto 115gsm Uncoated, printed in four colours throughout, allows each image to pop off the page, capturing the essence of McDonnell's stunning photography.

Ex Why Zed's commitment to quality and attention to detail is evident in every page of "Avanipok." The book is trimmed, collated, and perfect bound, resulting in an eye-catching publication that showcases McDonnell's work.

A Journey Through the Lens of Conor McDonnell

Conor McDonnell's journey as a photographer is as captivating as the images he captures. His career took off in 2008 when, as a 16-year-old, he attended a gig at the Manchester Academy with a basic camera in hand. Despite his initial photographs being blurry, the experience had him hooked and changed the trajectory of his life.

McDonnell's talents have taken him from the front of sweaty gigs to the expanse of the African savannah. He has documented countless tours with Calvin Harris, created artwork for Sir David Attenborough, and even photographed the wedding of Kim Kardashian and Kanye West. His work has been recognised and celebrated, with one of his photos becoming the most liked photo on Instagram at that time.

Thawing The Ice: Ex Why Zed's Sculpted Portfolio

Ex Why Zed's passion to quality and excellence is not only evident in "Avanipok" but also in other projects they've undertaken. Their portfolio includes a diverse range of photobooks, each with its unique charm and appeal. For instance, the photobook of Josh Jordan captures the raw energy of the music scene, while Sean McDonnell's "Living Lockdown" offers a poignant look at life during the pandemic.

Other notable projects include Francesco Bizzaro's "Menorca", a stunning visual journey through the beautiful island, and Valerie Bower's "On My Side", a powerful exploration of street culture.

In conclusion, "Avanipok" is more than just a photobook. It's a showcase of Conor McDonnell's talent as a photographer and Ex Why Zed's love of their trade. It's a celebration of the beauty of nature and the power of photography to capture and share that beauty with the world.
