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 too! In brooklyn! Too bad I couldn’t play ball that day, I was too busy being born and stuff. Hope the weather was good!

My sister was born. It felt like it should have been accompanied by a band, maybe it was.

This is amazing…as a kid I loved walking down the street looking at my shadow and wonder why I couldn’t detach it like peter pan! 6/12/83 #shadowbaby

the one thing that remained a mistery on this day was what would be the decoration of my surprise birthday party’s chocolate cake –which I didn’t like–(…my roomate never listened), but my college friends all came and I had a great celebration.

January 26 1992, It was a rainy morning in the tiny little village in Mexico. My mom went into labor since the night before and finally instructed my older brother to run to the next village and tell my grandfather that it was time for me to be born. My father wasn’t present and my mom brought me into this world with the help from the women in her family. It seems fitting that I’d grow up and even though I lost her at a young age, those same women in her family would help shape and raise me.

I turned 10 on this day, and went out to dinner with my parents. That might have been around the time of day this photo was taken.

Music. Music is the one thing that will consistently make me happy, and to find that in 1980, February 27th this incredible man chose to take a photo 22 years before I was born, when my parents where my age. That’s beautiful to me.

The day I was born. Kind of reminds me of my dad. He had long hair at the time, little to no tattoos, and played guitar. 😊 Hope this was a good memory.

The first time I saw this picture, I started crying!
I see myself standing there in the snow, just watching the world and hoping that my life would be filled with good experiences and wonderful memories!

Today almost 25 years later, I can say that, that happened!

This photo Jamie Livingston took the day I was born and I have always loved snow!

Keep in mind, that you are the one controlling your life! And that I believe in you, whatever you are doing!
