Stories about those days.

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. I’m a first born and my parents had no idea what to expect. But my mother remained calm, as always. My mother passed away last year in June, she also had chemotherapy, she was also an artist.

    This is the day I was born. I have looked through every year I find this soo beautiful.! I myself love taking photos I find beauty in capturing a moment I will be 22years old in a month. I hope this sends joy to his family knowing that so many years later he’s still touching peoples heart. 💜 may this live on forever. ✌💜😊

    I was born on this day. My family has its roots deep into literature and arts so needless to say, I love reading books. This picture somehow connects me so much with the old feeling of that bookshelf and I’m wondering which books are kept there in the bookcase behind him. I would love to step into this picture, everything & everyone still frozen, and pick a book to sit and read in a quiet corner.

    This day was My 31 birthday. I was living in NJ with US family and My parents were visiting the US. They had a hotell room on Manhattan and I stayed with them. It was winter and very cold. Communication into Manhattan was cut off. There was snow and ice everywhere, hardly No cars, only yellow Cabs. We had a great day owning the Manhattan streets in the cold. In the Evening We went to Madison square garden to see a hockey game. Some Swedish hockeyplayers playing. Great show. Lovely arena.

    My one true love, born this day. Oceans apart from this view. What a miraculous world. In my opinion, one of the greatest, most important days of all time.

    This is the day I was born, too. It really represents my personality, which I find scarily fated. I would love to know exactly where this was taken. It is utterly beautiful. RIP x

    I have a son born on that day whom my parents forced me to put up for adoption. I’m on the registry but haven’t found him yet. He was born in the Pottstown hospital at 7:38 am, weighed 7# 15 oz. I really want to get to know him. I was almost 18, but since I was under 18 my parents forced me to put him up for adoption. I think about him a lot.
