Our Story
Outer Banks Press was launched in the 1990s to publish regional lifestyle and vacation-oriented magazines. Soon, the company grew to include rental brochures, collateral materials, high-end coffee table books and books for academia.
As a gift to the community, we sponsored a public art installation of 100+ life-size artfully decorated fiberglass horses -- the Winged Horse Extravaganza -- to commemorate the Centennial of Flight in 2003. Along with this art project, we published three editions of "Outer Banks Wild, A Winged Horse Pictorial," picturing these fabulous works of art, some of which still grace the Outer Banks.
Our current focus is on private book clients, assisting them in creating beautiful books to showcase their work. Our publishing services include ghost writing, editing, illustrating, photography, project management, layout and design. We work with our authors hand-in-hand through the entire process, from discussing the spark of an idea all the way through delivering the final products. The largest reward has been making life-long friends while having a lot of fun in the process.
Through our public art projects, we further our dedication to promoting the arts and protecting the environment while celebrating life on the Outer Banks.
