DARE TO BE BOLD.
Being local artists ourselves, we couldn’t have felt more privileged to have recently worked with two young professionals in the San Diego area rocking their own clothing company and up-and-coming t-shirt brand: Jack & Bishop.
The men of Jack & Bishop are just as their company manta suggests- bold, daring, fearless, and ready to tackle any challenge that comes their way. Lucky for us, they needed some professional photos to use for their online marketing efforts, and we couldn’t have been happier to oblige.
Andrew & Matt, long term friends since high school, both were ready to begin a new chapter in their lives after college. They quickly discovered working for someone else, was not the career path they wanted to head down. Instead they were crafting a company from ideas that were both inspiring and original. Both disappointed in what they saw in today’s current t-shirt trends, the guys decided to put their skills together and come up with a t-shirt brand they loved. Matt moved out to San Diego and the hard work to start their business began. What’s so inspiring about these two entrepreneurs is that everything put into Jack & Bishop has been done by the two masterminds themselves. All their products are self-designed, and they handle all their business, marketing, and social media efforts. Their hard work is paying off- their brand is already taking off on the local San Diego scene and business is booming.
We had a lot of fun shooting for Jack & Bishop and love the way the shots turned out! (Sorry film fans- we of course went digital for this shoot, but you know we still think film rules.)
The Teddy Roosevelt quote that makes up “The Roosevelt” (Andrew is wearing below) articulates some of the ideas and images that Jack & Bishop is based on.

I couldn’t help but try one of these sexy shirts on myself! (So. Comfortable.) Girls can rock them too right?! Sunday’s Photos will definitely be purchasing one – or many – of these shirts.

Thanks to Jack & Bishop for a great day shooting out in San Diego– this is truly an inspiring brand started by inspiring, talented young people.
