CARY Baby Shower: Umstead Hotel

A few months back, I received a call from Los Angeles.  Edna was arranging a baby shower for her daughter-in-law at the awesome Umstead Hotel & Spa.  The Umstead is a famous elite location for wedding and events as well as for an excellent spa.  I just knew this shower would be an awesome event.  People came from both coasts to celebrate with Cherolyn and Rashsaan.  It was a new birth celebration and family reunion all rolled in one. 

Rashsaan grabbed his mother-to-be for a solo dance. You can definitely feel the love they have for each other.

Love brings the best of our emotions out!  No question, they will be great parents!

Mom and son!  Edna rocks!

Part of the celebration was the awesome performance of the smooth and soulful Cardye.

A special song for the expecting parents.

A party would not be complete without some dancing!

Sisters are cool! Everyone helps too. Pens anyone?

Some just want to hang out with their iPad.

Showers always have smiles and gifts coming straight from the hearts of family and friends.

Do not forget the hugs!

Toasts!

.. And more hugs!

Tips for the expecting mothers!

Candy and signs!

Thanks again for letting me share this moment with you!  I also know a photographer that does newborn and infant photography if you need one.
