baby shower | Emily Moseley Photography

I loved photographing Shanon and Ben’s baby shower in Brandenburg, Kentucky. It was at the historic Olin Guest House which is absolutely beautiful. The owners were so nice to open the upstairs rooms so we could a shoot for awhile before the shower.

It was awesome to have Ben’s help with the arranging! 🙂

Shanon made the invitations and the teddy bear picture. She makes hand painted invitations for all kinds of occasions! You can see her work here: www.medleyinvitationdesigns.com. I’m getting so excited to meet this little guy!

Meaghan is a very good friend of mine, and I was very excited to help throw her a baby shower. I’m pretty sure that this was the first baby shower that I’ve ever to been to (how is that possible?) It was amazing! I was stoked to make something for a decoration and decided (after a thorough search of baby shower ideas on pinterest) to make a onesie banner. I love decorations that are multi purpose! All of them seemed pretty plain or very gender-related which was disappointing (Meaghan and Adam are not finding out the baby’s gender.) I was telling Mary Walker’s mom about it (who is amazing at party planning/styling – check out MW’s first birthday party) and she gave me the idea about stitching animal silhouettes on the onesies and I was hooked. I had hinted to Meaghan about this ‘secret’ amazing thing I was making before I had even started, so I was a little nervous going in. But I couldn’t believe how well it came out! Did I bring my camera to take photos of the banner? Maybe… but I was so glad I did. Haley did an amazing job at decorating and styling… everything was perfect. And Meaghan was so radiant – cannot wait to meet this little baby! (I don’t want to brag, but the baby already loves me. It lets Meaghan know when I’m around.) 🙂
