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.

    This is the day of my birth, as well. So amazing to see a piece of the life someone on this day that wasn’t a family member or a friend of a family member. A total stranger. Provides a small amount more perspective of the world that day.

    This is my birthday also. Strange this looks very much like a photo of me taken by a friend when I was about 17. She even looks a lot like me then!

    this is my husband’s birthday, and i don’t think there’s a better picture to reflect the day he was born… he’s the most strong, center of the universe kinda guy, who manages to remain compassionate and delicate to those around him… what a fantastic photo, and although i wasnt born for another 8 months, it’s my favorite day… ❤❤❤

        Too late in the season for season tix & too early for playoffs or next season for Mets- maybe Jets or Giants??

    This is Galleria Umberto in Naples, Italy! I lived there for two years and visited this beautiful piece of art many a times! Added bonus, it’s directly across the street from the Naples Opera House! It’s still just as beautiful!

    I just discovered this website and the great story behind it. I love it! I love Polaroids. I actually want to have them come back, it was such a great invention. I’m nothing less than inspired! This photo was taken the day I was born.
