Me

I am a boudoir photographer serving the Tampa Bay area (and I travel a lot for shoots!). My in-home studio is located in St Pete FL where I live with my adorable pup and less adorable boyfriend ;)

I am so excited that you are here! Boudoir photography is all I have ever done professionally, and I cannot wait to share my passion with you!

About

the Boudoir

Photography

Experience

It is so important to take moments out of each day and just love yourself. Put yourself first, you're worth it. Doing a session with me isn't just a shoot, it's an experience, a mind-set change, and above all a celebration.

The gorgeous images you are left with are the cherry on top: the perfect way to surprise your partner and make their jaw drop to the floor, to regain power of your body and rediscover yourself, and to ignite that bombshell that is often hiding under proper office attire.

Ma Cherie Studios is the studio for boudoir photos. Annika is an incredible photographer who makes you feel comfortable and confident, even in silly poses. I was nervous at first, but the experience was empowering and you’ll look back and think I am damn fine.

After years of self-doubt and body shame, one shoot with Annika changed my life. It felt like a self-love immersion that has kept me on a high for months, and I now see myself as me, a goddess. Annika is kind, professional, and makes you feel safe; the photos are breathtaking and I can’t wait for my next session.

Annika is amazing from the initial consult to the day of the shoot. She is thorough, thoughtful, and makes you feel like a celebrity, and I already rebooked another shoot. I got all my images in two weeks and I love how they turned out.

She is the best boudoir photographer around. She’s so much fun and her work is incredible, and I barely recognize myself in the best way possible. My photos are stunning.

I've worked with Annika twice and loved both experiences. She puts you at ease, guides you on outfits and poses, and the photos are amazing. My first session was almost 10 years ago and I just had my second this year, and I can't wait for a third.

Second time with Annika after about a year, and it felt like reconnecting with an old friend. She is incredibly professional and her work speaks for itself, guiding me through every step and ensuring I love the final images. I’m grateful for the experience and already looking forward to round 3.

My fiancé and I did this instead of engagement photos and we could not be more thrilled with the results. Annika made us feel at ease and even though my partner was skeptical at first, he ended up having the most fun. It brought us closer, made me feel beautiful and sexy, and you can see our connection in the photos.
