Stories about those days.

The stories that people have about Jamie’s photos are a source of amazement. ย 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.

    This is my exact birthday!! I never knew I was born on a Monday! I think Hugh is standing at a gas station or maybe even a diner? Sorta looks like the ‘Hot and Ready’ sign of Krispy Kreme!

    This was the day that I met the best thing in my life! I was 16, he was 17. I told my mother that I had met the man I was going to marry. Two years later, I did just that!

    The fact that this picture represents a person enjoying the comfort of another means alot to me.this picture was also the day i was born and it makes me enlightened to see that on this day there was a fair amount of love given and received.it reminds me of the simplicity of love.no matter where we are there will always be love,even if we can’t see it.

    What a beautiful way to capture life and the things he saw. I was born in Bay City, Michigan and grew up in a tiny farming city. It’s great that his legacy is able to reach so many people now, after he’s gone.

    This was the day that I was born, he reminds me of my grandfather in this one laying down with a cigarette. In all of these pictures he captures the soul of an artist along with everything else, its truly beautiful and not something you get to see every day. Work like this is full of just raw emotion it makes you feel a lot of what the artist feels. God bless you Jamie Livingston, rest in paradise.

    I was also born on April the second 1997 on the other side of the world in Wellington, New Zealand. I have just recently celebrated my 20th birthday and hope (maybe one day soon) to make it to New York myself. I don’t have any photos from the day that I was born, seeing this is amazing.
