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 onthis day and never realized it was on a Sunday. This photo makes me think of my mom and baking cookies with her as a child. The orange representing Florida and orange season. My mother hated Disney. This photo made me cry and perhaps I needed to. I really miss my mom. I should really bake some cookies.

    I’m getting in love with photography and seeing the work of someone like Jamie is amazing. We take pictures of things that we like, we find interesting or just to show other people how we see the world, i find this photo SO beautiful, because i have a very strange love for trees that have no leaves and it might be just a very weird coincidence but the photo of the day that i was born (this one) shows the branches of a tree and you don’t get to see the leaves, it might be just me trying to make my birthday special or the things that i like, but this photo makes me feel good, i like it. I came to this website because i saw a video on Facebook about it and thanks to the universe I’m looking at this picture. I may even start a new tradition by looking a picture daily or looking them all at once or start doing the same as Jamie, who knows. I’m writing all of this with no hope of someone reading it, but if you are, THANKS for passing by. To the person/people that posted the pictures, thanks for showing us the world of Jamie as he saw it, as other people just by looking at this picture i feel as I knew him, it’s a very unique feeling and I’m thankful for that feeling. Thanks.

    My birth date 🍰🎂🎉🎈
    Best guess it’s a photo of a photo 📸, probably in a book.

    The shirt collar around the subject’s neck is distracting, contrasting the shirt and dark chair.

    I was two years old when this photo was taken- her smile and face seems so optimistic and happy. I hope my own mother looked at me this way that day.

    On this day my mother gave birth to me in a small town in Texas; it was snowing and my parents didn’t have anything just a van where they lived. On this day I gave my mother hope and my father joy.

    The day I was born in Poland. My country was then under communist regime and it was difficult to get a passport and visa to USA. Now in 2017 the world is different and I visited New York, which seemed impossible to happen back in 1985.

    I was born this same day. At 5:15 pm. This very same day I was going to die too. A lot of people say I have something steadily because of this. My mom said that when I was born weird things started to happened.

    I was born this day 💖 Strange how the background is of the ocean, being in water was my comfort, and the love of my life is an aquarius. ♊♒
