First two to email me will win - you can enter for someone you know who has a baby on Monday, yourself, family, friends! Remember, newborn must be born *this* coming Monday!

Check out some of my favorite little newborns

PS - if you are feeling a little silly or nostalgic head on over to www.yearbookyourself.com for a little fun, 1978 is my favorite one and I think my hair actually did look like that in 1994.

They came two by two

Today I had a wonderful opportunity to photograph a bunch of the cutest twins EVER! These little models just melted my heart with all their cute twinness (ok that is *so* not a word). They were all modeling for a awesome shop that specializes in clothing for twins and siblings of twins. I’ll share the name and how you can find them when we have all of the images live and ready.

I wish I could show all of the beautiful baby twins from today, but it’s been a long day so I’ll just give you a sneak peek of a few from today.

This little heartbreaker has a twin brother, but he decided that he didn’t want the paparazzi bothering him, so he declined and put his hand up and said no photos, please respect my privacy. Alright so he didn’t say that in so many words, but I think that’s what he would have said if he could have. ;)

For this next one, I can’t use the black and white version for the final one, but for my blog I just had to use it. I love how curious they look.

And the Winner is…

Lori Wlliams come on down and claim your prize.  Email me (angela at angelacalderon.com) so I can send you the gift certificate for your choice of the a oh so cute and cuddly Bestever baby bear mat.

The way I drew the winner was oh so scientific.  I had exactly 253 entries, so I called my son on the phone (I’m at the office) and I told him to pick a number between 1 and 253.  He chose number 161 which just so happened to be Lori’s email number. 

For those of you who didn’t win (or for those stinkers who didnt enter ;-) ) you can still get a babymat at ShopBestver.com and if you enter in coupon code: photobaby you can save 10% on your entire purchase.  This coupon is valid until August 15, 2008.

All my wordly posessions (minus laptop + camera + lenses) are sitting out on the curb waiting to be taken to Atlanta.  Ok well they aren’t just sitting there, they are in the moving containers.  Godspeed all my junk (er I mean valuables), have a safe trip and I will see you at our new home.  I have to tell you, I am lucky that I’m good at Tetris because you would not believe the amount of stuff I was able to pack in to those tiny little containers.  Phew!

Baby your Baby! Win a baby mat!

I am in super busy packing mode right now, acck!  The moving crates are arriving tomorrow so we are down to the wire here.  If you are waiting on a email from me, I promise I will get back to you asap!

Now for a little fun, I’m going away (well to Atlanta) and you are going to get the presents! WEEE!  The super duper fab peeps over at ShopBestever.com have given me a fabulous prize to give away to my blog readers this week.  Between now and Monday you can enter to win one of their hottest selling baby mats.  Let me tell you, these are the biggest things going in the baby market right now, they have been featured in TV Guide, In Touch Weekly and tons of other magazines.  Salma Hayek, Jennifer Lopez and many A-list celebs have these for their brand new babies.  So I think that one of my blog reader babies deserves one too!

The winner will get their choice of one of the six baby mats - pink bear, blue bear, giraffe, pink cat, blue dog or monkey.  My personal favorite is the giraffe.  You should see the lamb mat that is due to release very soon.  To enter the contest send a email to contest@angelacalderon.com and give me your name and email.  You will not be spammed and your information will not be given to anyone other than myself.  For everyone who enters the contest I also have a special coupon code to give you to save money on any purchase at shopbestever.com.  The deadline for entries is Monday 7/28/08 at Noon (that’s Pacific time, so East Coasters you have until 3pm).  Valid in the USA only.  This contest is open to all blog readers, photographers, moms, dads, kids, passers by, friends, foes, countrymen, peeps, humans and even furry friends.  One entry per household.

Enter to win for your baby, your furry friend or you could even give it as a gift.  Let me tell you these are the softest things ever, your little ones will love this for tummy time or just chilling on the floor relaxing.  I’ve heard that dogs and cats like them too!  Here are the six mats that you can choose from!

Remember my sweet little client Lola from a couple of months ago?  She had the giraffe mat!

The Littlest Red Sox Fan…

Today I photographed sweet baby boy Ray and his wonderful parents.  He was so cute and he had the brightest most beautiful blue eyes that just sparkled.  Ray’s older brother Bruce (the cat) was hanging out watching what was going on today, although Bruce told me that he was not interested in photographs today.  ;-)

Ray’s Dad is a huge Red Sox Fan & New England Patriots fan and he had all of this really cool memorabilia that was just perfect, so we swaddled Ray up and I think we have the perfect shot for his Dad.  Thank you to the L family for being so wonderful.  Enjoy the bean bag chair and have a safe trip to Boston in a few weeks!!

Here are a couple from this morning, sweet baby Ray…
