Dear Emily,

You are in luck. Your result is an instance of the following:

PROP
If C is a category bearing the orthogonal factorisation system (E,M),
and T is a monad on C whose underlying functor preserves E-maps, then
C^T bears the orthogonal factorisation system (U^-1(E), U^-1(M)).

A full proof of which is given as Proposition 20.28 in:

Abstract and concrete categories: The joy of cats (Wiley, 1990)
Jiri Adamek, Horst Herrlich and George Strecker

Maybe there is an older reference than this but I am not aware of such.

Richard
