Round 4: Where in the World is the Birdie Baby Accessory

Our city was featured in a 1984 Murray Head song.  This amazing city is rich with culture and has maintained its historic sites untouched while still becoming modernized.  It draws nearly 10 million international travelers each year, making it second only to London. The cities ceremonial name is translated as “The city of angels, the great city, the eternal jewel city, the impregnable city of God Indra, the grand capital of the world endowed with nine precious gems, the happy city, abounding in an enormous Royal Palace that resembles the heavenly abode where reigns the reincarnated god, a city given by Indra and built by Vishnukarma”.  The city covers 1568.7 square km and with the Chao Phraya River as its main geological site.  Due to its many water ways this city is often referred to as the “Venice of the East”.   Taking a ride down the river in a long tail boat you can see amazing historical sites such as “Wat Arun” and the “Grand Palace.”

Small Beginnings Photography

This post highlights the talents of one of my very favorite ladies. Courtney started off as a  customer & after I figured out she was a talented photographers became my go-to gal for pics of my creations.  She always, always gets me quality photos of my goodies (and quickly at that, I might add. Admitedly, I am not the most patient person around :)

Not only is she talented as all get out, she is so sweet & caring! She orders so many things from me & they are always for someone else. Thoughful gifts, little treats to pass out to little ones at her sessions... she just has a huge heart! ( I love that this gal still gives thank you gifts :) Courtney has surpassed from business associate to friend & I am so lucky she came into my life!

You can find her work here on her blog, here on her facebook & contact her here via email!


Enjoy these stunning examples of her work:

Marissa Moss, Blue Bird & Birdie Baby.

I approached marissa about working with me after finding her online several weeks ago. As you all know, I just moved from good ole' Texas to sunny Florida. I set to work finding the perfect partner in crime for all my photography needs. We met for coffee, chatted, brainstormed & set up our first official shoot.

You can see what drew me to her by scoping out her blog, website, or facebook!

This shoot was doubly special because it was also my first collaboration with Bleu Bird Designs. Delainey's beautiful outfit was pure hand made goodness. Check out the talents of Bleu Bird on Etsy & Facebook! See what I mean?



Never one to play favorites, Nova needed a special outfit to wear as well! Who better to ask than the one who has taught me everything I know about hand made goodies? My mom! I've finally convinced her to start herself a little Etsy shop, but that's another blog post. :)

Love.

Knowing my Delainey, things could get sticky if she decided she wasn't having it.... so I brough along my sweet niece Nova & my sister for tickles & giggles. The girls were amazing! We went to a beautiful hotel called the Vinoy right here in St. Pete.

It had several things going for it in the girl's (okay, Nova's) minds.

A. It was pink.

B. There as a fountain to toss coins into... a favorite past time on her frequent mall visits with her mom. Mall rats, those two.

C. I MAY have told her a little fairytale that inside this beautiful tower.... lived a princess and that she needed to act like a princess too because the tower princess was watching her from up there . Hook. Line. Sinker.

I know you always think your kids are the cutest. But tell me these two aren't the CUTEST.

I have several favorites, and she still has more to send me!!

This city, although renamed in 1996, is still to this day known by 2 names and so i will accept both as the correct answer.  It is the most populated city in its country and the 2nd most populated city in the world.  In 1687 it was the headquarters of the British East India Company.  This city was once 7 islands, and in 1782 onwards the city was reshaped in continuing civil engineer projects into one single mass.  This city is diverse and houses the most wealthy to the destitute.  It’s most well known slum, called Dharavi, is one of the biggest slum communities in the world and is estimated to house between 600,000 and 1 million people. The movies produced in this city are vibrant films filled with dance and music.  A 2008 film by Danny Boyle depicted a young man from the streets of this city who went on to change his fate by becoming a millionaire.

What ISLAND are we on......

Nestled in the Andaman Sea, located off the west coast of the Malay peninsula, it is the largest of its countries Islands.  Known to early European travelers as Junkceylon this tropical paradise boasts beautiful sandy beaches that attract tourists from all over the world.  It is mostly mountainous covered in lush forest, and was financially sustained by tin and rubber in the 17th century.  It is surrounded by stunningly clear water, and lucky divers have the rare chance to catch a glimpse of the beautiful whale shark off its coasts.  You can arrange to ride an elephant through the vast jungle terrain or snorkel on a coral reef.  It  has a tropical climate with highs near 84F and lows of 73F.  It was devastated in 2004 by a Tsunami caused by the Indian Ocean earthquake.    Its name is derived from the Malay word “Bukit” (meaning hill), and was also known to the Malay people as Ujong Salang.  The movie “The beach” was filmed on a nearby island and is a huge draw for tourists.
