Brian Bishop
Graphic Design, Photography, Motion Design
First off, thank you for visiting my website, I know you’re a busy person. A little about myself. I’m from the great state of California, born in the middle, love all of it. I grew up on all things Star Wars, G.I Joe and Nintendo. I was a slightly above average trombone player in High School and I love rollercoasters, Disneyland, and finding new places to visit and take photos.
I met my wife Jessica while interning at a local children’s hospital in the rehab wing. She’ll tell you she asked me out which may be technically true. She is the most amazing woman I’ve ever known and has been a caring mom and loving wife for 20+ years. And, turned out both our Mom’s went to the same High School, with my Grandparents being my Mother in Law’s Teachers. It is a small world after all. We also have 3 awesome kiddos who amaze us everyday with their wit.
Will, a Drummer and can figure out the plot to most movies before the end of the second act. He’s the one everyone wants with them when they go to an Escape Room.
Katie, a “Theater Kid” who’s been Tall Alice, Mother Abbess, Grandma Josephina and the Ladybug. She’s also quick witted and reminds me of me.
James, a “Train-spotter” can tell you anything you’d like to know about steam and diesel locomotives. He’s also fearless, joining me on multiple flights to New England.
My career has been anything but typical. I graduated college with a degree in Recreational Administration with an emphasis in Recreation Therapy. I never intended to use it as I thought I’d be a teacher which I kind of was. Although I started out in Recreation Therapy I ended up getting to work with kids from the local Juvenile Hall, where we did stuff like video production, photography, and graphic design. I taught myself everything I could and ended up being pretty good at most of it.
I loved working with the students, the students loved making videos, even the administrators loved it but due to budget cuts it didn’t last and I decided to work in Communication, Media, and Marketing with a local government group. I’m a firm believer that anyone can learn anything with the right attitude.
“I must live by faith.” - Steven Furtick (My pastor)
My skills start with photography, transition nicely to video/film production, slide over to motion graphics, and currently are immersed in a fusion style of graphic design. If this website seems unfinished, it is and probably never will be.
My goal in life is to take one day at a time, spend as much time as I can with my family and work on projects that I enjoy. Thanks again for taking the time to read this and if we never get to meet I hope for all the best in your life.
What People Are Saying

I can't express how happy we are that Brian and Jessica do our wedding. I am so appreciative to have had them as people around us on such a monumental and stressful day. They're calming and caring nature makes you feel so comfortable. Of course, they're work is outstanding as well. They captured our day beautifully. Looking at the photos they did an amazing job portraying the feel and emotions that was our wedding. You can tell they just genuinely care. Best wedding decision we made!

Brian did a FANTASTIC job with our wedding pictures! He has been a pleasure to work with since day one, and he has been great with communicating about any questions I had during the process ( I didn't know much about weddings or what pictures to typically take, beforehand). My wedding was 11/7/15, and I just received my USB of pictures on 12/9/15. I have finally had a chance to look over my pictures and I love them all! I would not even hesitate to recommend him, I really did luck out with having him on board for my wedding

Exactly what I wanted! Brian took tons and tons of pictures and really captured the day and evening perfectly. Photography was my biggest worry because generally I am the photographer in the family and I knew I had to give that up for my day. I could have been happier with the photos from our wedding!

“
Brian and Jessica are amazing. Brian did our engagement pictures. There was so many good ones. We were able to use probably 50-60 pictures for our wedding. We just had our wedding but I am sure the pictures will be as amazing as my engagement pictures. Both Brian and Jessica were amazing and helped coach us through the wedding details. AMAZING. Such a blessing to have found them and been able to work with them.

I can't stop looking at my wedding pictures. They are so beautiful. Brian completely captured the day and the relaxed atmosphere of our wedding. He noticed the tiny details that had been done (I was a DIY bride with lots of crafts and decorations) and made sure that I would have a picture to remember all that hard work. That day went by so fast, but I have the pictures that my husband and I can enjoy for years to come.

Brian and Jessica were outstanding!! We met Brian and Jessica at a bridal show in downtown Fresno. They were both relaxed and easy to talk to, not at all pushy like many of the other vendors we spoke to that day. We both got a good feeling from them and their packages were reasonable so we dove in...and are glad we did.
Brian and his assistant first did our engagement pictures and we had a fantastic time shooting in Yosemite Valley. The pictures were incredible. Then Brian and Jessica did our wedding at Wolf Lakes in June 2014. They were supportive, easy-going, and a real pleasure to work with. They accommodated our requests with ease and were very professional. They were also unobtrusive, unlike some photographers I have seen at other weddings.
They were sensitive to our desire to spend as much time as possible with our guests while still covering the entire event. We now have hundreds of beautiful photos and a very well done wedding album to reminisce with.
We have no regrets hiring Brian and Jessica...they became like family to us!

Brian and his wife, Jessica, were our photographers for our wedding. I have to say, they exceeded my expectations (which were/are high)! They were both so sweet, made me feel comfortable and I would absolutely recommend them. My pictures have turned out beautiful and thanks to them we will have those to look at for the rest of our lives!

Wow! What can we say? Excellent, Friendly, VERY Professional, VERY Talented, and overall an awesome guy. My wife and I found Brian Bishop on the internet and once we saw his work, we knew he was our man. From the beginning he was friendly and made us feel at ease. We live in Los Angeles and he came out here for us! I have had nothing but great comments on our pics from all who has seen them. Thanks Brian, you're the best!
