This is really beautiful, Rachel! It's so natural, I feel honored to be witnessing such an intimate moment between this couple. Your perspective is just wonderful! #189070

Janelle,
Thank you so much for your kind comment. This couple was amazing. I didn't have to look too hard to find the love between them. I have about 5 images similar to this and was thinking of doing a series. Pregnancy is such a beautiful time and I am glad I was able to capture the love between these two that created the new life within her. #919242

Ummm... I'm at a loss for words, which doesn't happen very often to me!(LOL) In all seriousness, this image takes my breath away. You've captured something so intimate and precious, it overpowers all the senses. You're right about pregnancy too; I've yet to experience it because I'm only 18, but I agree that it is one of the most beautiful things in life!!! This is a picture I would love to hang up in my room to remind me everyday of the true, eternal love thet exists between two people. I don't think it could be represented better! Thanks for sharing, Rachel!!! #922486

Amy, thank you for you comment! :)
Amanda, well your words confirmed that I achieved exactly what I wanted to in this image. Thank you so much for your kind words. Hey do you mind if I quote them on my website? I have a page where I do that and would love to include the beautiful things you've said.
Thanks!! #923748
