If your house was burning, what would you take with you? Foster Huntington challenges anybody who is willing to participate in his photo project, The Burning House, with a single question. The first thing I would reach for would be my collection of photographs. What about you?

What a wonderful and touching idea, and the photos are so beautiful. Little intimate glimpses into the most prized possessions of strangers. I love it.

Fashionable Collections
I love this concept! It’s something I think about every once in a while.

I love seeing the collection of items that people cherish. Often it’s the most unexpected things that you end up seeing. Very cool post and fabulous photos!

Interesting how many people would grab their phones and their passports – I’d probably pick those very same things (add my wallet as well) in any emergency
Thats such a lovely project. I think I would grab my antique sewing machine, photos, phone and passports.

Really cool idea for a project. I never really know what I’d grab, but probably my gadgets (laptop, camera, phones), and my guitars.
What a great idea. I was just talking about this very thing with my Dad. I am going to gather up things and share my post as well. Thanks so much for sharing!
i love seeing whats inside bags and houses. always so mysterious and cool.

That’s a hard question…. I know for sure I would grab my cute little puppy, Leroy. And like you I would grab some pictures or my computer with all my pictures on it. I am so excited I found your blog today! I look forward to going back and reading older post so I can get to know you better. I would be delighted if you would visit my blog and tell me what you think. I am also having a giveaway that you might like.
Thank you

probably doesn’t count but the only thing i couldn’t live without would be my dog. what a cool photo idea.
These photos are beautiful but I don’t think there’s any material thing I cherish enough to grab in a fire. I’d definitely save my dog, though.

Does anyone know anything about that beautiful bag in the upper right?
This is the most beautiful post ever! I love it!
I’ll have to think about what I would bring…
Just a Silhouette
These photos are amazing! First thing I’d grab is my dog, then anything else I could grab but it wouldn’t really matter as long as he got out!

@Donna, that is her camera bag. Great isn’t it? I have seen those at garage sales, and flea markets. Keep your eyes out, and you will find one.
Erica and I will be sending in our photos soon! Can’t wait to do this.

I am SMITTEN with both the concept and the execution. Thanks for the lead! Lovely.
What a lovely project. I really like how the people involved captured everything into a single photograph. I would most definitely take my photo collection and probably my phone, wallet, and a few jewelry items that have an emotional value. Thanks for sharing.
It looks like only hipsters participated in this art project.
very cool photos i like them very much
So beautiful. A friend sent this to me as last year I threw in my job in senior management to pursue my dream of running a fashion label centred around this concept. I called the label ‘Bento’ – in my game, you were only allowed to take seven things – to fit the seven compartments in a standard Bento box.
