Allison is cognitively relating to her child through the pictures, but the composition also prominently exposes her belly along with her face, mirroring this mind/child dynamic. It's also got that pictures in a picture thing going, which is always cool :-) I'd make lots of prints and keep that negative safe and sound. Just great.
