Datacolor has brightened the lives of children in Chile with the production and sale of the photography book, "Colors of My Life." Proceeds from the book will benefit Hope for Children, a Chile-based charity dedicated to improving the lives of underprivileged children throughout the country.
"Colors of My World" is an 80-page hardcover photography book, which began as a simple photography contest sponsored by Datacolor’s European office. As part of the contest, consumers submitted two photographs that incorporated colors they felt best depicted their lives or personalities. The final images — 60 images total — worked so well as a single body of work that Datacolor decided to create a portfolio in the form of a book.
"We were completely overwhelmed by the number of images we received as well as the quality of the photos," says Sophie Schwery, Consumer Business Unit Manager, Datacolor in Europe. "Our decision to produce a book of these beautiful photographs was an easy one and working with the Hope for Children organization to benefit children has been rewarding beyond words. We would encourage anyone who loves photography to purchase the book and help brighten the lives of children," Ms. Schwery added.
