After losing someone she loved; artist Candy Chang painted the side of an abandoned house in her New Orleans neighborhood with chalkboard paint and stenciled the sentence; "Before I die I want to _____." Within a day of the walls completion; it was covered in colorful chalk dreams as neighbors stopped and reflected on their lives. Since then; more than four hundred Before I Die walls have been created by people all over the world. This beautiful hardcover book is an inspiring celebration of these walls and the stories behind them. Filled with hope; fear; humor; and heartbreak; Before I Die presents an intimate portrait of the dreams within our communities and a chance to ponder lifes ultimate question.

Excellent Book.By SobasPhotosAbout half of this book is building a solid salable portrait and the other half is building a solid business to be able to sell those portraits. I also really like his suggestion to practice each lesson he teaches as soon as youve read it and not read the book straight through. I agree with the other review- that this should be a textbook. I believe I would have benefitted greatly from it had it been available when I was in school.I received this book in order to review.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. The book should be carried by every camera store.By D. WaitersThis book should be a textbook and should be carried by EVERY CAMERA STORE. A very good book for newibes. Please read the first 4 chapters and yes read the introduction. Here is a book that examines the How vs The Why of being a ProfessionalThe difference between being a Hobbyist or a Professional. Chapter 2 by its self deserves 4 Stars. Jeff covers ways to Learn How to Learn. To many people are now picking up a camera and 4 months later they are on Youtube as experts. A house should be built on a good foundation. So should your photography business or hobby. The book is a easy read. Get the book or give the book. A true must read.
