The Outdoors Is Calling

THE STORY

Our journey in John Day began several years ago when we crossed paths with then-city Manager Nick Green and were inspired to hear about all the innovation and growth happening in the city. Not only have we had the pleasure of experiencing the awe-inspiring scenery, and outdoor adventures first-hand, but we have also had the great privilege of spending significant time in the city, and getting to know its residents. From the break of dawn to the fading twilight, beneath a canopy of twinkling constellations, we have captured the essence of this town on camera. We have documented every aspect of what we saw in John Day, from the rugged footage of the wilderness to the joyous laughter of children playing by the John Day river.

We created an illustrated map of the City of John Day, a visual representation that would not only guide visitors but also evoke a sense of joy and discovery. With precise attention to detail, we carefully marked out key places around the city, brought to life through whimsical and playful imagery. From characters tending crops and fishing to riding bikes and engaging in various activities, the map captured the essence of the city's vibrant spirit. Every element of the map, including current locations and future constructions, was thoughtfully considered and depicted to ensure its accuracy and usefulness.

We went above and beyond in the development of DiscoverJohnDay.com, leaving no stone unturned. With captivating photography and engaging videos, we meticulously curated every page on the site, showcasing the plethora of activities awaiting you in John Day and Grant County at large. Whether it's the exhilaration of skiing, the tranquility of fishing, the thrill of mountain biking, or the serenity of hiking, we took great care to highlight each activity individually. We crafted detailed copy for each activity and page featured on the website, including the town's history, local events, and information about the projects and development upcoming in the town. This ensures that every visitor to the site gains a comprehensive and immersive experience, gaining a profound understanding of this family-friendly location.

With over a dozen projects completed for the city, designing and developing this website was undeniably one of our most cherished endeavors. It encompassed numerous intricate components that offered extraordinary opportunities for creativity. Through our in-house team, we filmed over 17 captivating videos and captured an abundance of photographs, employing our craft with an artistic vision for every frame. Our goal was to preserve the enchanting essence of this remarkable region, ensuring its magic shines through in every visual element. We have gone the distance for John Day, and we have loved every minute of it.
