I have two adopted brothers from the same biological family.
For the older of my two brothers we have no baby pictures (at least none I've ever seen). There's only one picture of him alone that I know of from before the adoption. We do have a few pictures of him when he was in foster care that were taken when he was visiting the younger of the two brothers (they were in different foster homes, but had state mandated visits). He's about two in the earliest of those pictures, but I don't know exactly. We started our pre-adoption visits with them shortly after his 3rd birthday, so we have lots of pictures after that.
For the younger of the two, we have pictures from infancy on. His foster parents picked him up from the hospital, so there are pictures of him there. In fact, there's one picture of him in the hospital nursery that very clearly shows the name card with his BioMom's name on it (odd in a "closed" adoption.
