Orin's Preemie Prints NICU Grad Photo Shoot

Please enjoy Preemie Prints' families’ inspirational story & photos. 
Consider supporting our mission to share hope with families who have a baby born prematurely or critically ill. We thank our supporters, Preemie Prints volunteers, and donors for allowing us to continue touching the lives of NICU, preemie, and angel families.


We pray these special memories from Preemie Prints 
will help families heal and remember how strong 
they were in overcoming their NICU journey together.

A NICU STORY | THOUGHTS FROM MOM
“My little boy was born at 32 weeks(11/1/14) and is still in the NICU at Tomball Regional. He was 3 lbs. 6 oz. at birth but now weighs 5 lbs. 9 oz. Granted his weight is there but he is having problems learning to breath while he eats. My little bundle's name is Orin Christopher.

My boy, Orin Christopher, was conceived through an embryo adoption. I lost the ability to have children normally when I was 22 years old. However, by the grace of God I was given a second chance to be a mom and care for this little boy of mine. I want to let others know that there are options for those that are having difficulties conceiving.”




A Note From Autumn:

“This was my first session and I enjoyed it greatly. I am glad I was able to meet Donna and her little boy Orin. They have a very unique story and I'm so glad Donna shared it with me. Orin was very alert and wanted to hang out during his photo shoot and I think mom loved to capture that. It was nice getting to hang out with both of them. I loved being able to capture several of his silly face he makes as well as a nice little smile. These memories I know she will cherish forever.”

One of those programs is the gift of NICU photography and preemie photography. NICU families from across the US can request a no-charge photography session by a Preemie Prints volunteer. The family request from can be found on the right side of our website. These sessions are free of charge and for any NICU family, regardless of time spent in the NICU. The NICU photo shoot can take place inside the NICU or after baby is discharged and at home until their 1st birthday. Facing time in a NICU with a premature or critically ill baby is an extremely difficult time for families. Preemie Prints has a mission to share hope by letting families know they are not alone. Preemie Prints currently has over 100 volunteers nationwide. We are always looking for more volunteers to share in our mission! If you are interested, please email sherri@preemieprints.org and visit our website at www.preemieprints.org. To date Preemie Prints and our volunteers have gifted over 400 NICU family sessions. 

This was a Preemie Prints NICU graduate photography session that took place near Spring, TX.


We're thankful to the family for sharing their story & memories in support of other NICU families.
