Web design Portfolio
Have a look at some of the websites we have created!
Thunder Bay Naturopathic Clinic
The task at hand: design a website that is simple, functional, easy to navigate and read and one that matches the existing logo. The goal: promoting a brand new naturopathic clinic. The time frame: ASAP.
The end result is reflecting the logo in all respects: in the background and font colours, the simple black and white, used to offset the brightness of the rest of the colours, and in the tree which is faintly in the background in the main section and more pronounced in the side bar.
Blue Snow Imaging provided support for the content, chosen to inform and build trust while avoiding too much marketing lingo.
Blue Snow Imaging also provided some of the photographs on the website, such as one of a sleeping baby, a new sprout on a tree, a flower with a delicate drop of dew on it and a few of fruit and veggies.
In the end, the website reflects not only what the clinic is all about, but also the owners of this new venture who are dedicated to make people look at health in a different, fresh and natural way.
Good luck, Tracy and Jessica!! Thanks for your trust and kind words.

Kim Erickson
Kim is a local vocalist/musician/composer who approached Blue Snow Imaging for her web presence. The website reflects her personality and has a classy feel, due to the use of colour and fonts. The photos give readers the subtle message that Kim has had a lengthy carreer and at the same time is still very active.
Blue Snow Imaging also created a video for Kim's song "Blue Horizon" and a business card that matches her website.
Good luck, Kim, with all your upcoming work and hopefully the website, video and business card will give you all you had hoped for and more. It is lots of fun working with you.

Northwestern Ontario Aboriginal Youth Achievement and Recognition Awards
This project needed to be finished within two weeks and we were able to get it done even faster. The logo got a prominent place on the website and was an inspiration for the colours that were used on each page. Some rounded lines give the website a soft feel, while the photographs provide a look into the heart of the event that is promoted. The design allows for pages to be added easily in the future.

Conmee Township
Conmee Township is an attractive township west of Thunder Bay, Ontario and was looking to renew their website. Blue Snow Imaging was able to help them achieve a new look by adding colour and nice photographs displaying children going to school and enjoying themselves in the township, and other photos that proof the township is very much alive. The existing information was restructured to make it easy to find. New text was added to help attract new residents. Blue Snow Imaging is proud to add this piece of eye candy to our line-up!

Thunder Bay Feeds/ Double D Tack
Thunder Bay Feeds and Double D Tack shop are two stores located in Murillo, Ontario that work closely together and offer a wide variety of products. They have been our client for over 5 years and we have been their client for even longer. We were thrilled to get the chance to re-design their website for them. This time the different branches of their businesses are tied together with the use of 3 different navigation sections that come back on each page. The website got an updated look and feel, while making navigating through it even easier.

Hope CRC
Hope Christian Reformed Church needed a new design that would be more inviting, would feature very flexible menu options while adjusting the width of the page at the same time. This new design will hopefully make this site even a more popular tool to make initial contacts or to keep in touch with the church through the bulletins and the audio files of the services.
The design features elements of the old website, but with a more up-to-date feel that makes it ready for the next few years.

Hymers Fall Fair
This is a newly designed website for the Hymers Fall Fair. Their old website had been around for about 5 years and needed to have a bit of a make-over. We decided to not only make the site wider, but also give it a bit more modern flair, while staying close to the classic and true country feel of the Fair. The words "Hymers Fall Fair"`are written in a bit more modern font but seem to be written on a layer of fresh red barn paint, and the other fonts and the colours feel rustic. The pictures at the top give you an impression of the activities that make the Fair what it is and give the site a festive feel.

Tarrymore Farms
Another local farm! This fresh looking website has fun written all over it while fully matching the logo and drawings Bill and Jenny Groenheide have used for years. The bold colours and fonts fully compliment that look and feel. The website features two order forms: one for beef and one for lamb. On top of that, the photos give a nice impression of the farm and the family who owns it.

Sunset Ridge Cattle Co. / Dr. Dan's Divine Bovine.
This local farm approached us with ideas for a logo and a well laid-out plan including ready-to-go text for their website. The logo was developed first and next the website, which needed to be in Western Style and contain lots of sepia photos. On top of that, there was a tight deadline and no time to meet personally. Effective and pleasant e-mail exchanges helped to build this eye-catching website that made the client really happy. The website features the new logo, many subtle hints to the western theme, barbed wire and maple leafs drawings created by Blue Snow Imaging, an on-line order form, many recipes and beautiful photos. Thank you, Dan and Kelly! It was a real pleasure working with you.

Image Dance Studio
Image Dance Studio is a local Dance Studio that offers dance programs for all ages. We drew the inspiration for the design from the many photographs we were allowed to use. The black background of most of them, in conjunction with the bright colours of the flags the dancers were holding, made us move towards a dark background for the website with some bright contrasting colours. This way, the dancers appear to dance in the website.

Chaltrek
Chaltrek is a Thunder Bay outdoor store. This long-time client outgrew the former website that Blue Snow Imaging had created and decided to no longer print a paper catalogue as soon as she saw how beautiful her products looked on her new website. This way potential and long-term clients will always have access to the latest products and most current prices. At the same time, Chaltrek saved printing costs.

Ravenswatch Miniature Schnauzers
This informative website features a lot of photography by Blue Snow Imaging and showcases the Miniature Schnauzer breed in a way that makes you consider getting one yourself. Blue Snow Imaging is putting itself on the map when it comes to animal portraits.

Breukhaven Labradors
This dog breeder in the rural Thunder Bay area wanted to have a classy web presence. Breukhaven so far mostly finds new clients through advertising in the local newspaper, but this website will put her beautiful dogs in reach of Labrador Retriever enthusiasts all over the world. The website features a lot of photography by Blue Snow Imaging, and attractive looking pedigrees.

Thunder Bay Federation of Agriculture
The Thunder Bay Federation of Agriculture is an active group of farmers who educate the public about agriculture in general and local farming activities in particular. They had some ideas about the kind of information that was needed on the site but couldn't completely imagine whether that would be effective and easy to read. Blue Snow Imaging put their knowledge about education to work and created a fresh looking site with modern colours and many small boxes that makes the page look like an inviting magazine. This way even the statistics look appealing!

Rotary Bollenrit
Another Dutch client for Blue Snow Imaging. This Rotary Club is organizing a car rally and needed a website to promote the tour, the charity it is supporting and to display the sponsors. More importantly, it needed a registration form to collect all the important information from participants. The design incorporates the types of cars that can take part, the Dutch flag and the tulip fields the participants will visit. At the same time, the green shades give the website a natural feel. Most updates are done by volunteers of the organization.

Thunder Bay Agricultural Research Station The Research Station needed a website to explain who they are and display their research. The design needed to be simple but effective while incorporating their logo and using natural colours. Blue Snow Imaging came up with a design with many smaller and bigger squares and rectangles that create a layered effect.

Thunder Bay Christian School
This project was well prepared by the client and needed to be finished based on a tight deadline. Blue Snow Imaging was able to produce this website well within the given time frame and to make it look the way the client had envisioned it. This website will be mainly updated by the school staff and boasts a photo gallery and a calendar of events.

Len Hagendoorn This website shows of the work of Len Hagendoorn: a very talented sister of one of our clients. Len lives in Austria and works in Hungary and has ties with many other countries so her website needed to feature 5 languages without becoming hard to navigate. Blue Snow Imaging found an elegant way for people to find their way around, no matter their nationality. The site features her artwork throughout the site, making it pleasing to the eye. A gallery features her artwork that is currently for sale. The site is set up so it can be updated by the client.

Hagendoorn
Yes, we can build personal websites, too. If the text and the images are ready to go, the site will look professional while it is surprisingly affordable! Robert Hagendoorn is a enthusiastic traveller and photographer and this website shows it off! The website even features a Photo Gallery that showcases his best shots. This website can be updated by the owner.

Northlake
 A successful businessman in the Netherlands is using his extensive skills to help other businesses succeed. He wanted a website that would explain how he can help businesses grow to reach their full potential. The website needed to build trust, have a serious look-and-feel, while at the same giving the impression that this great source of knowledge is easy to access. This was partly achieved by the overall design that incorporates a smart selection of pictures, words and colours. Blue Snow Imaging didn't only design the website but also assisted with editing and translation of the text and on request made it possible for the business owner to do most edits and updates himself. The Northlake logo was developed by Blue Snow Imaging as well.

PKN "de Korenaar"
Blue Snow Imaging has created another Dutch website using e-mail only! A church called "The Korenaar" in the western province of South Holland wanted to create a website that they could maintain themselves and would support their close-knit church community. Blue Snow Imaging created a website that breaths the atmosphere of a European church, without feeling old-fashioned or boring. This in not only achieved with the interesting but solid colour scheme and fonts, it is also done by using colourful and self explanatory buttons that give access to schedules and organizational information.

Coby de Oude
Coby de Oude (yes, family...) runs a home-based art studio in the Netherlands. However, she sells internationally regularly and wanted to extend the reach of her portfolio to a world-wide public.
We created a website for her totally based on her paintings so the website was basically a work of art in itself. Even the background of the navigation features a detail from her work.
