Beautiful, interesting and superb @}->--- October 9, 2006 27 out of 32 found this review helpful
Even if you aren't into photography, you can certainly appreciate the quality, professionalism and beauty of Annie's work. She's one of the most trusted photographers around and she's been in the business for so long doing amazing work. This book is delightful to look at. She actually studied to become a painter, but instead she's created works of art with her camera. This new collection is a personal retrospective and an amazing collection of great photography. Inside are the trademark celebrity photos, landscapes and also for the first time, some personal family photos (the births of her children). There are also pictures of her best friend and partner, Susan, while healthy and while dying. There is an incredible mix of stunning pictures in here and it's a gorgeous book to look at, to give as a gift, buy for yourself or to let your friends look through it if you leave it on your coffee table. There is something for everyone in here and I highly, highly recommend it.

The photographs are impeccable, as always, but this photographic glimpse of her life and her loved ones is beyond words. Each photograph will evoke emotions and make you ponder what each subject was feeling and thinking at the time. You will love this.
Brilliant. October 6, 2006 30 out of 36 found this review helpful
I am a very big fan of Annie Liebovitz, and have been for nearly fifteen years - ever since I had the opportunity of viewing some of the artists photographs in a Gramacy Park photography agent's office. Ms. Leibovitz has captured the beat of society in her many but many photographs . . . all with a unique depth and in some way, a contradiction to the obvious: which is in part where Liebovitz's genuis lies. In the retrospective 'A Photographer's Life: 1990 -2005, there is a series of high profile and well known individuals that range in their celebrity and notority: however, one thing is certain, each individual captured through Ms. the artist lense is depicted in such sheer dimensions that their essence, their struggles, their strenght, and their desire are captured in ways that offer the whole picture. In 'A Photographer's Life: 1990 - 2005', Annie Leibovitz has captured the kalidoscope of the movers and shakers who have created the moving image of life as we have experienced it. Extraordinary.
