2011 Eastern Greene Girls Biddy Ball Pictures

My wife and I got the opportunity to photograph the 2011 Eastern Greene Girls Biddy Basketball team pictures! We had a great time photographing and interacting with the girls. We got some great feedback on the photos. Here are some examples:

Eastern Youth Football and Cheer Pictures

We were thrilled to be selected as the photographer for 2011 ETYF season! We had a great time photographing the players and cheer squads. I'm grateful to the League for selecting us, and we are happy to announce that we once again donated 10% of sales to the League!

Here are a few examples:

England & Young Family Photos

We spent a beautiful Sunday afternoon at Indiana University photographing family portraits for repeat clients that we like to call friends. You may recognize everyone from previous wedding and family photos we've taken. How wonderful to see the little ones growing, plus get to meet a new face with Logan.

Here are several shots from our afternoon.

The gift of glam!

Ladies, if your husband or boyfriend is like I am, they know they've got the most beautiful woman in the world. Give him the gift of glam with a glamorous photo of yourself that he can display proudly at work or home. I have. Let us show you that everyone has a glamorous side!

My beautiful wife:

T-Ball here we come!

My son is going to be playing his first year of T-Ball this spring. I am proud to be coaching him as I take the helm of the Eastern Greene Youth Baseball T-Ball Pirates! This will be my first time coaching a T-Ball team, so I am excited much like Aaron is, to be a part of his team.

My first T-Ball team was the Pirates and so was my wife's. I naturally selected the Pirates to be my son's first team. Got to keep the tradition going you know.

I also put in a bid to be the league's team photographer so I am anxious to find out if I will be doing the photography.

A big thank you to the IU Credit Union for being a sponsor for our team.

Happy Easter!

I would like to wish all of you a wonderful Resurrection Sunday! This year we did not get a new puppy. (Thank goodness!)

Eastern Biddy Basketball

This year, as I did last year, I helped my brother-in-law coach a 1st & 2nd grade biddy basketball team at Eastern. Little did I know that I would end up being a head-coach for a 3rd & 4th grade team. I admittedly do no know that much about basketball, but with my brother-in-law (a real basketball man) at my side, I thought I'd give it a go. I am glad I did.

I had a group of really good boys who learned so much throughout the season. We started off good with three wins, but hit a rough patch and lost 3 in a row. The combined difference between the score of two of those games was just 3 points. We finished strong to end our season and headed into the tournament.

As the tournament began, we were playing like I knew we were capable of playing. Every boy contributed as we made it to the championship game in the tournament. In the semi-final, we were down 7 with just a few minutes to go. We tied the game with a ball that rolled around the rim (to build suspense, I guess) and finally went in with about 28 seconds to go. We pulled away in OT and advanced to the championship, where we lost to the undefeated champions.

It was a satisfying experience and I look forward to coaching again next year.

E.R. Gray & Associates logo and website redesign

E.R. Gray & Associates, a land surveying company located in Columbus, Indiana desired a fresh new look for their business. Their old design was showing signs of age and was ready for an update.

THE LOGO:


I based the new logo design off of their old well-recognized logo, making the new design more crisp and modern looking. I removed the inside of the compass, and replaced it with the company's initials. This will allow the compass element to stand on it's own in time.

I also changed the wordmark font to a modern, much easier to read font.

The simplicity of the logo design makes it functional for embroidery on shirts, coats, and hats.


THE WEBSITE:

The old website.



The new website.



The new design presents the complicated topic of land surveying, into an easy-to-read and easy-to-understand manner. The approach to the redesign was simple. What if I were needing a land surveyor? What information would I need to know? I know absolutely nothing about land surveying, so I need the information in small digestable bites.

The new "Did You Know?" boxes quickly answer frequently asked questions that an E.R. Gray client may have. The "Request a Quote" makes it easy for potential clients to initiate business with E.R. Gray.

The feedback on the new design has been terrific, and the "Request a Quote" feature is already driving business to the company.

Thank you E.R. Gray for entrusting me with the new look of your company!
