Ben from the Art Monastery Project pointed me to the work of Jamie Livingston.  

Livingston snapped a polaroid every day for 18 years (=nearly 7000 polaroids), from 1979 to 1997.  It’s a captivating story, I think, because his daily practice was so enduring, and seems to have been meaningful primarily to him and his friends and family (only secondarily intended for the outside world, which is only now really picking up on it).
