About

We are friends, and our names are Bird and Plum.  Well, not exactly.  Our real names are Jalynn and Carrie, but we have adopted the aliases, "Bird" and "Plum," to match our nicknames: Jaybird and Sugarplum.

We met when we were eight and seven, respectively, and became fast friends.  Even though we now live in different states, we've kept in touch over the years through long letters and, more recently, long emails.  We joke that we write each other "novels."

Our mutual love for photography spurred the creation of this blog. Jalynn (the Bird) is an aspiring photographer and hopes to study the field in college next year. Carrie (the Plum) runs her own graphic design business and enjoys photography as a hobby.

This blog is the storehouse for our diptych project - every week, we each take a picture and put our images together on one canvas.  Jalynn's photos are on the left, and Carrie's are on the right. Most weeks, we will have a theme to our diptychs, but sometimes we'll just use random pictures.

We're glad you stopped by!  Enjoy!
