Little Emiliya's NICU Grad Session

Please enjoy our inspirational photos and consider supporting our mission to share hope with families who have a baby born prematurely or critically ill. Our programs include an online support group, the gift of photography, group events and meetings, information, and email support. Our mission is to connect parents and let them know they are not alone. We thank our supporters, volunteers, and donors for allowing us to touch the lives of NICU, preemie, and angel families. 

We pray these special memories will help the parents to remember how strong they were in overcoming a crisis situation.

A note from Mom:
"Our beautiful daughter was born at 32 weeks gestation due to preeclampsia. She was 3 pounds 7 ounces at birth and was delivered via c-section. She was breathing on her own and didn't have any major complications in the NICU, where she resided for the next 3 weeks."

A note from Larry:
"When I first spoke with Emiliya's mom in August, we decided to wait until Emiliya was sitting on her own before doing her NICU Grad photo session, and I'm SO glad we did!  Emiliya was just adorable sitting there, smiling and laughing at her mom and dad as the funny camera guy jumped around in front of her.  We went to a local park for the shoot and the weather was perfect.  Emiliya was so interested in, and looking at, everything going on around her at the park, her mom and dad and I really did look like circus performers trying to get her attention!  Emiliya may have been born at 32 weeks, but now she is a happy, bouncing 8 month old and as you can see, her mom and dad are some pretty proud parents!"
