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.

    Today, Ferris Bueller’s Day Off was released. I was only 2 years old, but years later it had became one of my favorite movies.

    On this day hurricane Hugo made land fall in Charleston, SC. At 5 years old I would have rather sat and watched Sigfried and Roy than sit in a station wagon for over 8 hours out running total destruction.

    I came into this world and while you were walking on stilts, I was just learning to open my eyes. Funny, yellow is my favorite color.

    June 12th 1995, the day that I was born. But this picture is is so relevant to me, as I myself have grown up to become a video editor in New Zealand. There’s also an odd positive satisfaction seeing this picture. My entire life i’ve grown up obsessed with film and TV to the point that i’ve made a career out of it, but it leaves me smiling knowing that this picture acts as a potential catalyst for something that has become a huge part of my life ๐Ÿ™‚

    This is the exact day my brother was born. I see him in this photo–the look on the subject’s face, the tiniest reflection of jos feet in a left hand corner–he looks as if he doesn’t care but he knows something…that’s my brothers default expression ๐Ÿ™‚

    This was the day I was born. When I was about 9, I used to collect glass elephants and decor my room with them. This is so cool.

    That’s the day I was born, and Trainspotting happens to be one film that always hit me in an odd way–jarring and beautiful.
