For the past 20 years, photographer Noah Kalina (previously) has taken a single photo of himself every single day of his life as documented in his ongoing “Everyday” project he began on January 11 2000.

Musician Carly Comando provided the soundtrack for this segment of the project, as she did in 2006.
I was honored when Noah asked me to collaborate on the 20th anniversary of his photo-documentary series. As the composer of Everyday which was used in the original video release in 2006, it’s an absolute delight to work together again in creating a soundtrack for this project. I wasn’t expecting the emotional reaction I had while scoring this, but looking back and feeling the nostalgia of spending so much time with Noah in my formative years – and seeing myself in the background in some of the footage – filled me with joy and gratitude.
Kalina, who is a pioneer of the “one photo every day” trend, had previously documented this project at the 6 year mark and then again at 12.5 years.
Kalina was the inspiration of an episode of The Simpsons in which Homer took a picture of himself every day of his life.
He also inspired the Everyday for iPhone app, which allows users to take a picture of themselves daily and upload it into a timelapse video similar to his.
