This bespoke recipe book was self published by a naturopath and raw food and it's the best selling book we've printed to date.
Jana sought meaning at every level and worked with us to find materials that reflected her love for nature, organic recipes and design. She chose custom elements including enviro-friendly paper, a raw board cover with an exposed spine binding, and coloured paper inserts.
A phased edition was the most economical approach and the key to her success. After the initial run of 150 copies, the word spread and she has printed 600 to date.

Rob's book of local wildlife photography proves that personal photo projects have the power to be published. He launched his book in tandem with a photo exhibition and artist talk, followed by a letterbox promotion, and now only has a few of the 100 copies left.
His publication was produced as a Regular size gloss hardcover with Satin 150 paper, funded by a grant from his local council and sales of the book.
Like many camera clubs in 2020, QCG had to cease printmaking. To keep their creativity alive and spirits high, they decided to produce a photo book, inviting all members to submit an image.
The book features 40 images from 29 artists and was printed as a 74 page Regular size perfect bound softcover.
The introduction by president Jasmine Westerman says it all: "This collection of images exemplifies the talent and passion of photographers in the QCG. Congratulations to all the contributors, leaving such a special legacy.
