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 KENZIE AND SAVANNAH'S FAMILY
Savannah Rose and Kenzie Hope were born February 10th, 2017, at 30 weeks and 3 days. At 16 weeks of pregnancy we were diagnosed with TTTS (Twin to Twin Transfusion Syndrome). At 19 weeks my boyfriend and I traveled to Philadelphia Children's hospital where I had laser surgery to save their lives. It worked!!!! Both girls are currently at Strong Memorial and doing well. They are breathing on their own and doing great with feedings. We are extremely blessed!
Kenzie and Savannah's photo session was taken and donated by Preemie Prints volunteer photographer, Jennifer Sternal-Johnson.
A Note From Jen:
Kenzie and Savannah are identical twins who had twin-to-twin transfusion syndrome in the womb and had corrective surgery at 19 weeks. They were born at 30 weeks and at 9 days old, were already off oxygen and doing great! Can't wait til they are home with Emily and David and their big siblings!

Preemie Prints is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization sharing hope with NICU families through a variety of support programs. 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 form 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 1000 NICU family sessions.
This was a Preemie Prints NICU photography session that took place near Rochester NY.
We're thankful to the family for sharing their story & memories in support of other NICU families.
