A Wheelie Folio Week

Amanda Guy -- Our Designer
Hi there WheelHeads! Happy Sunny Friday to ya!

We've been pretty busy this week at the WheelHouse and have been working diligently on our portfolio as we find the time. It's something that has been on our minds, long before we moved into the new office, and I'm happy to say that Lisa and I have started making some headway on a few of the projects we've done in the past and are still currently working on. It's hard to keep up when we consistently pump out so many projects!

We do display a lot of our work here on the website and on our Instagram account, but we are working on a cohesive layout for each, and every, individual project, that we can show off to clients, prospective clients, friends, and family.
I remember a while back, Lisa and I made a list of all the different projects we all worked on over the last year. This was probably around the time we made our first Wheelie Sick Edit! We sat down, listed them off, and then realized we had a lot of work on our hands if we wanted to include everything in the folio.

Lookbooks are always a great way for us to show our work, but can you imagine making a lookbook for hundreds of projects?! From archived to currently open projects, we have a lot in the system to go through. And, if you think about it, once you have that all organized, then you have to figure out a way to display everything.

But, to be honest...The folio is one of my favorite things to work on, especially when I'm feeling a little overwhelmed. Something about it makes me calm and helps me to collect my thoughts. It's really fun to go back and look at all the things we've made, even just over the last year. Plus, now that I have that super rad infinity wall upstairs, I am having a great time photographing a lot of our work in front of it. (Side note, we do product photography and edits, we are also happy to add in professional portraits with your branding packages.) The hardest part of the infinity wall has been convincing people not to skateboard on it. (Or if you are Alan from Whitefish Legacy Partners, we're referencing your rollerblades. #FiveWheelsNoBreaks.)

Also...Now that Melissa and Sean from the Montana Scene have opened their second location here in Whitefish, I can pop over and photograph the fun designs we've created for them.

It's really cool to walk around town and see all the things you've made. Lisa and I talk about that all the time. Whether the Wheelie Crew is popping over to Spotted Bear Spirits for an after work cocktail, or walking around downtown for First Thursday's Art Walks, we are always catching things that we made out of the corner of our eye. Lisa likes to make me pose in front of some of those things, like a proud little design mom. 

Last night, our super rad client and inventor of The SwitchLift, Tim Carlburg, had a reception for a lot of his new pottery at Whitefish Pottery. He had asked me a couple of months ago if I'd be interested in doing a collaboration with him on his work. I would provide a few drawings/designs, and he would slap them on his handmade growlers and flasks. Uh yeah! Of course I wanted to do that. And so the Wheelie crew headed over to see the show last night, and yep, Lisa had me pose in front of my work. 

Thanks again TBURG! You're work is amazing! (check out Tim's invention that is taking the pottery world by storm, and the website, and logo we built for him) The SwitchLift.

We're extremely pumped that it's officially June and it's basically SUMMER! The sun is shining and will be shining for the next few days. Go out and enjoy the weather. We intend to!

Also, IT'S WHEELIE TRAIL DAY! LET'S DO THIS!
We'll be working on the Skyles Cliff Section and beyond today on the Whitefish Trail. Hopefully I can get my gimpy ankle out there! Trail Day is my favorite!

I can't recommend Wheelie enough. Our website launch was almost too successful, and we could barely keep up with the amount of orders we received as soon as we announced the rebrand. They are ah.MAZING!"
