At 1 hour and 20 minutes old... "Are YOU my Dad? Hey What's to eat around this joint? What do you mean My MA is in surgery? FEED ME!" ( SAME darn chair in hospital room, I was very limited, this little one was very late!!)

Congratulations
Nice starter series. What a pretty family!

(To make naked babies happy, they need to be warm - an assistant with a blow dryer set on low is a good tool)

First 3 work really well, especially the pregnancy shot. The first has huge potential and I love the B&W conversion on his face. Not so much the baby which looks OE. Maybe you can burn it in or find something in one of the color channels to use?

Beautiful baby.

Mybaby shots from my second child at that age is a little different. Very much would have prefered the cutesy pics like you have over the CPAP and incubated look I ended up with.

Congrats on the grandchild.

Ha ha! It's baby season! I did my first-ever maternity shots on Tuesday of last week and the mother (Jamie) started labor on Wednesday and baby Maya was born Thursday morning.

Maya had the same little hat, and I have to say that your picture with Dad and baby with the pointy hat is just tooooo cute. I love it!! and your daughter is just beautiful; she has that wonderful 'glowing mom' look! you captured the light and the feeling perfectly!!!

Here are a couple of the maternity shots. I've just discovered that my monitor calibration (although it looks great to me) is waaay off, so these don't look nearly as nice here at the moment, but I hope to rectify that next week.

Well I am sure you got some great cutsie shots a bit later. I did get some more, ummm primal shots right in the OR, but they were not so pretty ! The best ones came on day 3. You gotta get what you got, and your baby pictures I( I JUST saw them) show how far your baby has come and how wonderful medicine is in this day and age, much to be thankful for!!
Guess we can't just go pick them in a garden, but THAT would be fun to shoot too!!

Like #2 but love #3. Something you would see on the wall from pottery barns wall displays.
