Stories about those days. | Jamie Livingston: some photos of that day

The stories that people have about Jamie’s photos are a source of amazement. Some are of the “that’s me and we were doing this” type of stories from Jamie’s friends. Some are the “I never met Jamie but this was taken on my birthday and it means a lot to me. And some are just stunningly moving one of a kind stories.

I was born on this day and often feel like a coin in the grass. A needle among hay, I feel disconnected from people – lost, yet always there. I am happy to feel different. My difference gives me hope and sometimes feelings of isolation… I see the glimmer on that coin and realize it’s a golf ball.

This was the day i was born. I always joke and say it was the best day of my parents life but i’ve never thought about what others were doing on that day. I wonder what Jamie was up to and who he was taking a picture of this day.

This was the day I was born. So fascinating seeing someone at whatever stage in life they were in, the day my parents life changed forever and my life truly began.

This is my birthday. I think it’s pretty cool what Jamie did with a camera. His influence on art would make him happy.

This photo is very special for me, as this was the day that my first child, Jennifer, was born. My mind goes back to the very first time I looked into the eyes of this little one, and my heart was so full of live and joy. Thank you, Jaime.

This is the day I was born in Klamath Falls, Oregon USA. At 7:15 am. My name is Zenna. In this photo its sunny and bright and a sences of child joy and silliness is expressed with the balloons. A complete. Contrast to where I was born. It was very cold and snow everywhere. I love knowing on the day I was born there was such brightness and joy!

Just started scrolling and came across this. I have been going there in the summer for 50 years! The place hasn’t changed in all that time. I expected to see all NYC pics, but this was cool. Can’t wait to see what else I discover through these beautiful pictures..
