Silas & Quinn's NICU Photo 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:
"So far our NICU stay has been wonderful. Both babies have exceeded our expectations and are doing well. Both were switched to high flow nasal cannulas at 2 weeks old and put on a diet of breast milk only. Unfortunately Silas caught an infection and had to go back on a ventilator and nutrients for a bit. After a blood transfusion and rest, I'm happy to report he's back on CPAP and will be off of his nutrients soon."

A note from Ken:
"Silas and Quinn were both sleeping sound when I arrived. The nurse asked mom if she would like the feeding tubes removed off of the twins and mom said yes. This was the first time they had been off their feeding tubes and the first time they were next to each other outside of their incubators. It was an exciting time for mom and dad, as well as it was for me. Mom and dad did not want to be in any pictures, so we just photographed the twins together. Such tiny little lives at 34 weeks and just over 3 pounds each."

  1. Thank you to Ken and Sheri at Preemie Prints for helping us capture this time in our lives. We will cherish these pictures and special moments forever. The twins continue to do well and should be home in a few short weeks!
