Nothing is sexier than a woman who knows herself, loves herself, and respects herself. Fully.


Hi! I’m Tonya. Michigan based Boudoir and Intimate Lifestyle Photographer servicing the greater Detroit and Ann Arbor areas… with the occasional jaunt to Chicago.

Born and raised in Ann Arbor, I now call White Lake home; where I live with my partner, Scott, and our pooch, Judy. After almost twenty years in corporate advertising, and having lived in over a dozen different zip codes coast to coast, I returned to Michigan to pursue my lifelong passion for photography. Along with my commercial work (tonyamerke.com), I have completely fallen in love with boudoir photography. After my very first session, I was smitten! To witness women celebrate (and love!) their bodies is the greatest form of self care I can think of. To capture these beautiful, intimate moments for women, and couples, is an honor beyond words.

Thinking about booking a boudoir session for yourself or as a gift? Let’s chat! I know you probably have a lot of questions before actually pulling the trigger, so let’s jump on a call. Talk though your thoughts, and go from there. Shoot me a message using the link below. ‘til then, follow me on instagram for the latest and greatest of all that’s naughty & nice.

I look forward to capturing your beautiful, sexy self soon!

Shine bright, beautiful friends!
