Stories about those days.

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

    There years after this photo I was born. It’s funny cuz I never thought I’d knew people from before I was born in a completely different world. It’s a crazy world.

    1st August 1991 is my birthday and red is my lucky colour. I found out about this site via facebook and actually delighted to have found it. It’s an amazing extraordinary piece of art and all thanks to creative genius Jamie. Rest in Peace and thank you for bringing people together and creating a common ground through your sheer act of sharing and taking pictures. It serves a higher purpose. πŸ™‚ Thanks for keeping this site alive so that people can reach and connect. <3

    This picture was taken exactly two years before I was born! But the amount of love felt for this amazing artist, in this moving photograph, is recogniseable today- through the beautiful gestures from both the figure to his right, as well as the watchful figure in the background. The whole collection of photographs in itself is moving, iconic and inspiring, and I am so happy that there were moments of respite during the more difficult parts of his life.

    As lots of commenters write: this is the day I was born. Also, I really love trees (to climb in them hahahaa) so this represents me thoroughly and easily.
    What a gorgeous smile she has.

    My twin sister and I were born on this day, in another part of the world entirely. It may sound silly, but I still think how odd and amazing it is that millions of lives were taking place before I even breathed. I wish I knew the story behind this particular day.

    This was the day I was born. It’s crazy to think that one simple photo can make you imagine so much like the maybe passing by and just imagining the smell of those beautiful flower or the sounds of the city. It just goes to show that there is a beauty in simplicity. The beauty of life just shine throughout each an every photo. Thank you Jamie for you beautiful photography it captures the inspiration bliss that I’ve been looking for and it’s never ending. Thank you !

      I was also born on this day and year. The fashion wouldn’t really look so out of context even today.

    This is the day I was born. And wouldn’t you know it, now, almost twenty-five years later, I work as a professional musician for a company called Howl at the Moon. I can’t quite put my finger on it, but this is making me feel all kinds of things

      I was born on this day too, in sunny Singapore!

      What a great idea this site is, bringing people together to celebrate Jamie’s life through art. I’m sure Jamie would’ve been proud that the work of one could inspire the lives of many.
