Melissa Tomeoni: Food Art Photography

This Giveaway is closed.

FRIENDS!  I am so very excited about this giveaway!  It’s the season for getting and getting.  For Christmas lists, and Santa.  For acting surprised when you saw the package that came in the mail.  Stockings.  Lights. And everything that winter is all about.

And if you are in my home, it’s the season for re-arranging your furniture because you can’t decide where to put your Christmas tree.  And then you realize that you have a HUGE blank spot on your wall and you are DYING for some sweet photography.  Wall art.  That Pops.  And screams modern, fun, and delicious.  All at once.

And this, is where my dear friend Melissa from Melissa Tomeoni Photography comes to the rescue.  A little formal introduction…drumroll please….

Melissa Tomeoni Photography specializes in portraits, high school senior portraits, newborn and children photography. We are located in Portland, Oregon but also service areas such as Seattle, Tacoma and Vancouver, Washington, as well as Southern California locations Malibu, Thousand Oaks and Orange County areas. You will find our style to be modern, classic, unique and fashion forward.

Melissa lives with her husband Joshua and puppy Persay, in Portland, Oregon and constantly finds joy in them both. Whether working internationally or just around the block, this photographer is well versed in life, love and the passion of image making. Someone once said “… perfection … is not in making a perfect picture but in creating the perfect balance between what you see and what it triggers in you.”

And a little informal, behind the scenes knowledge of this beautiful person.  We’ve been friends since college.  Our husbands were college roommates.  She’s a red head.  She’s vibrant.  Fun. Alive. And makes you feel that way too.  She’s been there for me through so many experiences, and it is truly my honor to encourage and support her in her endeavors.  And it’s pretty easy considering, SHE’S AWESOME!

Like Melissa, her food photography is fresh, hip, inspired, and joyful.  And for these reasons, I can’t imagine any other artwork that I want on my living room wall.  And guess what my friends?  She is giving away TWO prints to you fine readers of Bonnie the Baker!

This, could be yours:

Along with a photo which represents a scenario that is near and dear to the heart of all foodies:

AHH! I can hardly handle how lucky all y’all are!!

  • Each print is 5×5 and will be mailed to you directly from Melissa Tomeoni herself.  The only prints which can be won is the “Orange” image as well as the “Orange Peel”, no exchanges are permitted.
  • Disclaimer: I was not compensated for this post, although Melissa is a kind soul and gave me two prints for my naked wall.  Because that’s the kind of person she is: generous.

 

Here’s how you win!!  You can get one entry for every one of these AWESOME things you complete which will, of course, increase your chances of winning.  So have at it!

1.) Visit Melissa Tomeoni on Etsy and tell me which print is your favorite and why.
2.) Tweet this phrase and comment here telling me you did so: ” Y’all! I entered to win 2 Gorgeous Food Art Prints by @MelissaTomeoni from @BonnieBakes! http://bit.ly/t9YYQ2 ”  (You can leave out “ya’ll…but it’s more fun to include it.)

    Bonnie, I am coming out from my lurking hiding place to comment. Your life has been such an exciting adventure since I last saw you when we were working at the Abbey, and Chip is adorable.

    I followed you on Twitter and checked out Melissa’s etsy – I love the cabbage photo. Since I’m living in Portland, I’ll make sure to contact her if I ever need any photos taken!
