So fresh. So Amélie.
I hope you can see yourself through my lens. Magnetic, sultry, empowered. You on your best day.
Bathed in a haze of glistening light and billowy fabrics, boudoir is the ultimate expression of self-love. My name is not Amélie. I named my boudoir business after my made-up Parisian counterpart; and yet she’s the real deal.
Amélie is demure, yet forever fearless. That’s her indescribable spark; her je ne sais quoi.
She’s wildly feminine and captivating at every age. Amélie is your inner French girl, beckoning you to experience more of what brings you joy.
Sounds like you? Let your inner Amélie shine through with romantic images you’ll treasure forever.
I’m Maritza, your Chicago boudoir photographer
I launched Amélie Boudoir to create affordably aspirational images for ladies like you and me. I worked in the Chicago bridal beauty market for several years and noticed a void in the boudoir space.
The type of boudoir photography I longed for didn’t exist when I was getting married and I became determined make it a reality.
But long before my time in weddings, I earned a B.A. and M.A. in Psychology. I’ve always been able to connect with others and give words to the unspoken. I’m not an energy healer, but I’m an excellent energy reader—and I give great advice.
It’s important to create romantic opportunities for ourselves and invest in moments of happiness. My goal is to capture your unique beauty and mirror that radiance back to you.
“ I believe boudoir is therapeutic. I’ve photographed women in many stages of healing and celebration. The common denominator? Each one is seeking to feel empowered in their own skin.”
I pose you to flatter your body best,

Amélie Boudoir is French-inspired boudoir in Chicago. The studio vibe is Parisian apartment on a rainy day. Cozy and inviting—with fresh florals, rich fabrics, and fragrant candles.
My home loft studio is located near Chicago’s mini-downtown, Schaumburg, IL.
I believe when people see themselves in your work, that creates trust. You’ll find my boudoir style to be super approachable and fun.
