Boudoir & Glamour Photography

About Us

Ciao Bellezza Boudoir & Glamour celebrates feminine beauty throughout the greater Washington, DC and Baltimore, MD metropolitan areas

Tony Avellino is a veteran fine art figure, boudoir and glamour photographer based in Washington, DC. In addition to his work for private clients, his images are featured regularly in regional gallery shows, juried exhibition, and magazines. His artistic mission is to celebrate feminine beauty in all its forms — in images that are beautiful, artistic and empowering.

Our web galleries showcase women ranging from their mid-twenties to their mid-fifties. While they may differ in age, figure and degree of daring, each woman is beautiful. And playful. And sexy. A woman can be sexy wearing a bathing suit, lingerie, a cocktail dress, a jumpsuit —or nothing at all. There are really no rules — just individual tastes.

When you shoot with Ciao Bellezza, we work with you to discover what you think is sensual, beautiful and appealing. Then we create a set of images that genuinely portray your most beautiful, sensual and playful self. Images that celebrate the woman you are — and the woman you aspire to be.

If you’re interested in creating art that reveals the real you — or if you simply wish to indulge your inner flirt — please contact us. You'll be glad you did.

You can also contact us for our 2022 Pricing Guide or to sign up for our occasional, image-rich announcements of new blog galleries.


Tony Avellino’s photographs exude sexuality.
You can’t miss it. You can’t walk away. He captures the look,
the feel and the daring of a woman without regard for norms....
enticing, inviting, textured, and true.
— Cindy Cotte Griffiths, Rockville Central
