Custom Publication Service
Downes Media can create a fully customized magazine for your brand on a monthly, quarterly, or annual schedule, giving you a polished publication that feels like it came from a national media house. Our team handles everything, including layout and design, ghostwritten feature articles, professional food photography, and chef-tested recipes that showcase your products and services in the best possible light.
Each magazine is tailored to your brand voice, visual style, goals, and size requirements, whether you want a compact digital booklet or a full-scale print magazine for in-store or direct mail distribution. You approve the direction, then we do the heavy lifting, from story ideas and copywriting to photography, design, and production-ready files.
​​
If you already have an established magazine and simply need high-quality content, we can provide a content only option at a lower price point. That includes ghostwritten articles aligned with your editorial tone, along with custom imagery of your desired dishes and food products, ready for your design team to plug into your existing format.

Cookbook Publication On Demand
Imagine holding your own cookbook, filled with your recipes, stories, and mouth watering images, ready to sell or share with the world. At Downes Media, we partner with you to make that vision real, guiding you from first idea to printed book.
We start with concept development, helping you define the theme, audience, and structure of your cookbook. Whether you are highlighting family recipes, a restaurant menu, or a food brand, we work with you to organize chapters, plan the flow, and shape the voice of your book.
From there, we move into writing and recipe development. We help you refine your recipes so they are clear, consistent, and easy to follow, and we craft engaging headnotes, introductions, and stories that reflect your personality and brand.
Next comes the photography, where your dishes become the visual heroes. Our professional food photography captures every detail, from steam rising off a fresh dish to the texture of a perfect crust, giving your cookbook a polished, appetizing look.
We handle layout and design so your pages look clean, modern, and readable. Then we prepare the files for print on demand with Amazon Printing or with your preferred publisher, making sure everything meets their technical requirements.
Throughout the process, you are never on your own. Downes Media walks with you every step, from first brainstorm to the moment you open the box and hold your finished cookbook in your hands.
Our Process
Downes Media partners with you at every stage so your publication is clear, cohesive, and effective.
We start with concept development, clarifying your goals, audience, and key messages. From there, we create a content plan that outlines articles, recipes, features, and ads that support your brand story.
Our design team then builds a layout that matches your visual identity, including fonts, colors, and page structure. Every page is planned so readers move naturally through the content and your products and recipes stay front and center.
Content and visuals are produced together. We ghostwrite articles in your brand voice, develop recipes that highlight your products, and design advertisements that feel integrated, not bolted on. Our photographers capture professional imagery of your dishes, products, and lifestyle scenes. When needed, we bring in chefs to develop and plate recipes that look as good as they taste.
You review and approve key checkpoints while we manage timelines, assets, and production details. When everything is final, we deliver print-ready or digital files in a clean, organized package.
From first concept to print delivery, Downes Media can complete your project in as little as 30 days*.

* Timeline dependent on the scale of your project. 30 days is only an example, not a guarantee.
