Miss Marlee

I took these 2 months ago and am just now getting them up on the blog. For no good reason, it just seems like sometimes I can't seem to get my act together.

This cute little gal is the first child of a lovely young couple who both grew up in our little community. Her name is a combination of both their names, which I love!

I have to amend my previous statement about Marlee being their first child - years before this baby came along, there was Miss Izzie...

she was the baby for a long time, but by all accounts is being a good sport about the new addition to the family.

Dad didn't want to be in the pictures at all, but we talked him into at least being a hand model.

When I took these, Marlee was already several weeks old, but her Mama didn't look like she'd ever had a baby. It's not fair.

These were my favorite:



The light was a little iffy, so I took a couple with bounce flash:

What a cute kid, she did so well. Thanks guys for letting me come take her pictures. Congratulation - - a little late.
