Our Story
It All Started With American Apple Pie
It’s remarkable to think that Downes Media, now employing a team of talented photographers, began with a single spontaneous moment. CEO Roger W. Downes snapped a photo of a piece of apple pie at the Baked Pie Company on Long Shoals Road in Asheville, North Carolina, using his new Nikon D850 camera. That simple photo, shared on Facebook, caught the eye of Melissa Leavell, Marketing Director at Ingles Markets, sparking Roger’s journey into the world of food photography.
Roger credits God for moving mountains to help establish and grow Downes Media into what it is today—a thriving company serving clients across the Southeastern United States and beyond. With a passion for storytelling through photography, Downes Media is ready to help elevate your brand. Contact them today to see how they can bring your vision to life!
