Joshua's NICU 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

“He came a little too early. The doctors tried everything to keep him in, but he was ready to see the world. After an emergency cerclage was put in, bed rest, and attempts to stop labor, he was born at 23 weeks and 3 days. We are still on this journey through the NICU; hopefully, he will be discharged on his due date.”





Joshua’s photo session was taken and donated by Preemie Prints volunteer photographer, Ashley Parker.

A Note From Ashley:
“This past Sunday I was able to photograph sweet Baby Joshua in the NICU. I had such a wonderful time with my first Preemie Prints shoot! The mom was SO excited about their session! Baby Joshua turned 2 months old just last week and weighs 3lbs! My favorite part of the session was being able to bless this sweet mom with photos of her little guy! I loved hearing her story and all about Joshua! I left there feeling so blessed and thankful that I could share my talent with them and give back! I look forward to hopefully working with this family again in the future!”
