About DNA Newborn & Maternity Portraits- Sacramento
Sacramento Maternity Photographer | Safety * Artistry * Legacy
Hi, I’m Dwayne N. Adams
I’m a maternity photographer, U.S. Air Force veteran, and Emergency Room RN with over 20 years of experience. Together with my wife Terrie—a dedicated Labor & Delivery nurse—we founded DNA Newborn & Maternity Portraits to deliver something rare in Sacramento: a blend of fine art portraiture and real-world maternal expertise. It’s not just about taking photos—it’s about honoring the journey with care, intention, and artistry.
Your journey into motherhood is more than picture-worthy—it’s profound. That’s why we approach every session with not just artistic vision, but deep respect, compassion, and the expertise to capture it with the care it deserves.
