About

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.

Working with Annika of Ma Cherie Studios was a pleasure from start to finish. She answered questions, guided me through a 12 month prep with thorough information and a personalized Pinterest board, and made me feel comfortable and confident for my shoot. The results are breathtaking and I would 100 percent recommend Annika for any boudoir session.

I'm so happy I did this photo shoot with Annika. At 41 I felt a little old and insecure, but she made me feel relaxed, confident and beautiful in every pose. I will definitely do another shoot next year.
