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.

    February 2nd 1987, the day I was born, was the first of two consecutive February 2nd’s he didn’t take a picture. Or didn’t share the pictures he took those dates. Any reason behind the absent Groundhog Day photos?

    It’s my birthday also! I just came across this video in Facebook and was really moved by the idea and the way he took the time and opportunity to find something beautiful in every day.
    That day was the starting point for us (mine in Finland), but for him, it was just a another day to make one moment to last a lifetime.

    I find it perfect that this day’s picture is a cat.
    I was born on this day, and cats have always been, and still are, a huge part of my life.
    My fiance and I now run a rescue, and own 8 of our own.
    Thank you Hugh, for keeping this website going. Jamie truly has left a mark on people, all over the world. His art is timeless.
