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.

I planned a surprise wedding shoot for my fiancé and was nervous. From the first call to the day, Annika was amazing, answering questions, guiding outfits, makeup, heels, and jewelry, and making me feel comfortable, sexy, and like a goddess. The photos blew me away at reveal, and the experience gave me confidence I had never felt before. I highly recommend her.

Annika is talented, professional, and warm, with an eye for every detail. She made me feel incredibly beautiful and sexy at a time I felt invisible, and the photos are gorgeous. Her thoughtful planning, location, props, and sizing considerations show how dedicated she is, and we booked a couples shoot before the solo one.

After a scary, sweaty start post baby, I almost canceled, but Annika made me feel like a goddess and I left loving myself. She is calm, respectful, and incredibly uplifting, with perfect guidance on wardrobe and posing, and her amazing lighting makes you look like a model.
