Hi, I’m

Catherine Downes

Writer. Photographer. Editor. Sandwich enthusiast.

About Me

I’m a senior copywriter and journalist with 14 years of experience.

My work has been published by Texas Monthly, Palm Springs Life Magazine, Shondaland, D Magazine, The Dallas Morning News, Food & Wine, Travel + Leisure, Modern Luxury, Southwest: The Magazine, SUCCESS, and more.

In 2017, I collaborated with Vancouver-based chef Karen McAthy and photographed her cookbook titled The Art of Plant-Based Cheesemaking: How to Craft Real, Cultured, Non-Dairy Cheese. In 2018, we won a Gourmand World Cookbook Award for our work.

I love what I do. Let’s connect.
