This week a new article came out in Hustler Magazine by writer Missy Martinez about naughty photography taken in the snow. As a native East Coaster Bella Vendetta has tons of experience as both a model and a photographer working in the winter months in chilly New England. Bella got to share some of her experiences, as well as some of her photography.

Along with Bella’s photos and other steamy hot yet shivering cold babes, is VendettaVerse model Morgan Fey. Morgan told some stories about shooting with Bella in the snow and what that was like.

Bella Vendetta is known for wearing many hats in the adult industry: performer, producer, filmmaker and photographer.  In 2020 when the pandemic hit she won a grant award from a  prestigious museum and began deepening her photography studies.

Since then Bella has had her photography published online, in print, hung in gallery shows and gracing the pages of multiple models onlyfans pages!

She has also since self published 2 books of photography and 3 calendars.

This past week The alternative fashion and photography magazine Eerie Eclipse announced it’s cover art and table of content.  It was announced that a photograph Bella Vendetta took of model Tommie Gunn will be the cover photo.  Bella and Tommie Gunn also landed the inside cover, table of contents as well.

“I was so thrilled we got the cover!”  gushes Bella, “It was an artistic concept I was just trying with the drastic light and shadows, and having Tommie look like a renaissance painting.  I am so happy the response  has been so great.  It feels good to have  success in the art community the same week I have success in the porn industry”

The July issue of the magazine also includes a multi page photo spread featuring Bella Vendetta  as a model, photographed by Carin Teresa Photography for their “Hippie Goth” issue.

Here is My annual list of My top 23 favorite photos I took in 2023.

It was actually hard to nail it down because I made ALOT of art this year, and alot of stuff I was particularly proud of.

But here’s My favorite model photos of the year:

I also wanted to include some non model photos I took this year. I landed a photography residency at Arrowhead, Herman Melville’s Estate and with the blessing of the Berkshire Historic Society I have been working on a larger project studying the trees that Melville himself planted on the property. Here’s a few of My favorites so far from that series:

I hope you all enjoy. I have felt alot of love in My craft, creating art and making pictures this year. I’m really looking forward to releasing new stuff, never before seen models and even some landscapes this coming year.

A big genuine THANK YOU to everyone who supported Me this year in any way. If you booked a photoshoot or bought a giftcard or came to a gallery show or bought a print or subscribed to this site or purchased a video or got one of My calendars…thank you from the bottom of My heart. I could not do what I do without you.

It’s that timeof year! Time for Me to share My top favorite photos I took this year. As a photographer, I really grew in 2022. Not only investing in Myself professionally by opening up a photo studio, but levelling up My. skillset and devoting alot of hours to learning post production. I invested. in new. equipment, some of which I have still yet to master. Check out 22 of My favorite photos I took this year, in no particular order:

I had a BUSY year shooting both on. location and in the studio. A sincere THANK YOU to all the models and beautiful humans who trusted me to make art with them last year. I cannot wait to see what 2023 brings!

Well, I am very happy to say that My first open studio event went splendidly! I had a decent number of people come through, a positive yet somber vibe and loved the entire experience.

It was really meaningful to Me to see My work hanging on the walls and framed, to see folks reading My artist statement, to see the models posing next to their framed pieces. The best part for Me was that so many other local photographers came through. I really felt the love! I love connecting with other photographers so it was cool to expand the network and meet new folks doing different kinds of work.

Special thanks to My wife, Brook Rain for helping Me put everything together.

and special thanks to Constantine Manos, for photographing the event, check out the pics below!

A special shout out to the models who came to show support! VendettaVerse’s own:

Sunny Cheex, Morgan Fey, Duchess Jealoquin, Ryren Sinn, Tommie Gunn, Dannie Scream, new model It’sMagicalMe and a brand new model who debuts on the site soon: Jules Jones!

A big thanks to everyone who made this possible, it truly takes a village!
