Irelynn’s Blooming, My Baby Shower: Southern California Photographer

Where in the world have I been you ask? For those of you who don’t know I am expecting our 3rd baby this Oct… we are getting our little girl finally after 2 amazing boys. We are so very excited.

So because of our little bun in the oven I have fallen WAY WAY behind on blog entries. I suppose sitting in an office chair longer then needed isn’t first on my agenda. Ive been working STRONG and hard… but I am now coming down to the final weeks of doing sessions. Which Im nervous about… I love shooting and seeing everybody. But I suppose its ok to take some Jenn time for once… and Im so blessed to have such amazing understanding friends/clients who will be holding off or stretching their package sessions to work around my baby bump. 🙂

I plan to come back in Dec (date unknown) according to how well I recover after my C Section. So keep an eye out for my return. 🙂

With that being said… I want to share with you all my beautiful baby shower. Since this is our last baby I wanted to go out with a bang… I had to PERFECT idea/theme for the shower… so who better to pull this all off for me? My AMAZING friends & Family of course!!

My good friend Collette Budd of Brier Rose Design had just the perfect style I was in need of! Goodness this beautiful lady has ideas for days! She knew exactly what I was looking for and just went over the top with everything. I love you Collette thank you so much!!
