Before formal introductions to Olivia. I've noticed that I receive quite a bit of visitors and I often wonder who visits my blog. So if you would be so kind to say "Hi" I would love to hear from you. Also tell me what is your favorite shot from this post along with your introduction; I will be drawing a WINNER at random from the commenters leaving a comment on this post no later than Friday, March 27, 2009. Winner will be announced on Saturday March 28, 2009 . I will be giving away cool prizes so you don't want to miss out on this ;-) So now on with the guest of honor of this blog post....Olivia.
Actually it really looks like I posed her that way but she just happened to pull her arm up. Baby's are so advanced these days.
Tip for photographers or mommy's wanting a shot like this. Use a surface that can be warmed up. I held the charger up to a portable heater to warm up the surface. Baby's HATE anything cold. Unless my client owns a portable heater; I will bring my own.
I LOVE this shot! The first thing Erica (Mommy) and Frank (Daddy) bought for Olivia when Erica found out she was pregnant was a HUGE duck. So the "Yellow Duck" became a meaningful character for Olivia. This is actually a puppet that Frank placed next to Olivia. As I was checking my camera settings and checking for exposure Olivia Yawned and this was the outcome.
Sound asleep against Daddy's shoulder.
Newborn's flakes and creases. Something a mother would never want to forget.
She is so PRECIOUS!!!
The love for daddy's little girl was SO apparent. I love how Frank had different methods of calming Olivia and Erica's expression.
Another one of my favs!
Thanks for everything and introducing me to Baby Olivia. Enjoy the show :-)

Well, you know me, Val. :) But I have to say I love, love, love the duck shot! That is adorable and if I were the parents, I'd get it blown up on canvas and hang it in her room! It's just adorable! I love the one of her on the platter too. So cute! All of them are great images though - the parents will be soooooo happy! Great work as usual!
I love the shot on the charger!!!
Beautiful work Val!! I love the duck / yawn shot too. Totally perfect. :)
They are all just beautiful! My favorite is daddy with baby...her little fingers next to his...perfect. :) Thanks for sharing them with us.
