Lily and Samuel's 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

“Mom went into preterm labor at 27 weeks. She went into her doctor for a checkup in the morning, and the doctor stuck her straight in a wheel chair and took her over to labor and delivery. They managed to control the labor long enough to get an ambulance to take her to a hospital with a level 3 NICU, but the babies were determined to come. Samuel and Lily were born by emergency c-section that night - two and a half pounds each.”



Lily and Sam’s photo session was taken and donated by Preemie Prints volunteer photographer, Rita Davis.


A Note From Rita:

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 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 50 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 500 NICU family sessions. 

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


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