Hi There! My name is Bianca Buentello and I’m the creative director and passionate artist behind Tombolo Creative.

Why I Started Tombolo

Since I was 17, I have served small business owners in many capacities. From firsthand experience, I know how precious time is for entrepreneurs like you. You deeply love what you do, but you also have to juggle many hats to keep your dream going.

I started Tombolo Creative to help take a few of those hats off your plate so that you can keep that passion of yours burning, without risking burning out.

Through brief collaboration upfront, I’ll hear your vision behind your business and help you develop your brand to its greatest potential.

What Tombolo Is

If you’re a boutique owner, baker, ceramicist, bead jeweler, or you-name-it business owner, then you know: visuals are everything.

But, you’ve probably ended here because you also know “photographer/website builder/newsletter maker/social media planner + manager” is a lengthy job title you want to keep off your resume.

That’s where Tombolo comes in. We help serve small businesses like yours by providing a variety of creative + strategic services to help establish and grow your brand.

How we serve Small Businesses + Makers:

The clientele who hire us consists of a range of businesses like local candle companies, neighborhood gift shops, flower trucks, coffee companies, freelance bloggers, visual artists, boutique salons, and more.

(That’s right - this is a small business + makers club and you’re invited!)

  • We specialize in product photography, portraits, and lifestyle photoshoots to fit the voice of your brand. So now you’ll look consistent across your website, social media, and newsletters.

  • Need guidance on what to post? We will help you as little or as much as you need to get your online presence going.

  • We customize websites for your brand so clients can engage with it on our terms.

  • Need a way to connect with your most cherished clients? We'll help you build a newsletter your audience will love to open!
