Ciao Bellezza's Now on Patreon!

Ciao Bellezza! posts regularly on social media - but social media has one major drawback: platforms restrict what an artist can show when portraying the human body. We’re proud of our art and want it to reach the widest audience possible, in its original form. So we created a Patreon page where we can post freely and without inhibition - and those who follow our work can enjoy it the same way. You’ll find (completely uncensored) single images, galleries of images with professional models, videos and downloadable, high-resolution magazines.

On this page you’ll find a sampling of the content on your Patreon. Enjoy! There’s plenty more, we add content at least once a week - and when you become a patron, you’ll receive an email notifying you when new content is posted (and linking to the new content). Patronage starts at $3 a month and you can try it free for a week - well worth a look!


Art model and eternal muse Melissa Troutt put the sizzle in this video, which introduces Ciao Bellezza’s Patreon page. Enjoy!

New Patron Bonus - Vivian in the Sun Room

I recently had the great pleasure of working with traveling model Vivian Cove at a home studio in Keedysville, MD. This photo set - a bonus for all new patrons - was taken in the studio's sun room. Vivian is in great demand because of her artistic sensibilities, her posing instincts and her finely muscled form. I'll be posting another style of photos from that shoot soon - and you can see more of Vivian on her website and IG account.

 

You Can Leave Your Hat On!

A favorite and versatile addition to glamour shoots is the hat – almost any kind of hat. It’s a simple prop that’s fun and inspires variety and creativity, as the images in this set will show. It’s like Margaret Atwood, the author of A Handmaid’s Tale, says: “I myself have 12 hats, and each one represents a different personality. Why just be yourself?”

Check out the personalities that some of our favorite models – including Vox Serene, Melissa Troutt, Alexis Orchid, Amber Gangi and Inna BG – found while fiddling with their cherished chapeaux...

 

Candace’s Nudes

I’ve shot with model Candace Nirvana many times - Candace is a fabulously talented art model and an accomplished photographer in her own right. My goal as a photographer is to celebrate feminine beauty and sensuality - and there’s no better collaborator than Candace.

 

Behind the Scenes at Our Hot Wax Shoot

Here's an artistic recipe for ya: one crock pot, one model, a few pounds of soy wax, two photographers, some new lights to play with and a few hours to kill. in this video you'll see everything that went into the hot waxy shoot that produced the images in the Waxing Artistic set. Thanks to fellow photographer John for letting me include him here.

 

Premium Video - Beads, Babes & a Bathtub

When models Melissa Troutt and Nataliya Natta and I got together recently for a shoot involving a bathtub full of beads, Melissa pulled out her GoPro, handed it to me and the models started to play to the camera. We had fun - and here's the proof! I'll be posting a set of the stills soon.
