Danielle Meagher Photography: "When two hearts beat together, the third one is conceived."

Back in the end of June I was lucky to be asked to take this beautiful woman's pictures and to help preserve this special time in her life. We headed down to the Rochester Yacht Club where it was incredibly beautiful and where Mandy's shower was going to be held after we finished our photo shoot. The day was absolutely perfect and Mandy was glowing, inside and out!

"My precious little baby, I have loved you from the start. You are a tiny miracle laying closely to my heart...

Each day I feel your presence. Each day your heart beats softly as only I could know...

So I'll keep this in a special place and remember each year through of this very special time in my life. The moment I carried you."

"Love is magic, the way nature works seems to be quite magical" (Jonas Salk)

"The decision to have a child is to accept that your heart will forever walk outside your body." (Katherine Hadley)

"The most important thing she'd learned over the years was that there was no way to be a perfect mother...

And a million ways to be a good one."

"I begin to love this creature, and to anticipate her birth...

As a fresh twist to a knot, which I do not wish to untie." (Mary Wollstonecraft)

I also got lucky enough to stick around and capture some moments of her baby shower. I can say one thing "Baby Girl" Altman is definitely going to be loved!!
