Why This Event Is Different
We know first-time events can raise eyebrows. That’s why BrandShots Live was built around the same client-tested visibility strategy Pam Ivey has used for 20 years, and why every part of the day is led by seasoned professionals.
This debut event is not an experiment. It’s the first live version of a proven framework that has guided more than 200 professionals through powerful brand photography, positioning, and marketing systems.
Yes, this is the first BrandShots Live. But it’s backed by two decades of brand, marketing, and visibility strategy experience.
Our team has guided hundreds of professionals, from consultants to executives, through the process of creating visuals that convert attention into opportunity.
Now, we’re packaging that expertise into a single, accessible event for professionals who take their business image seriously.
When you join as a Founding Participant, you’ll gain insider access to future events, early VIP pricing, and exclusive post-event tools designed to keep your momentum going.
Past clients have used this approach to:
- Update their entire website and attract higher-value clients
- Land podcast interviews and local media features
- Win speaking engagements and brand partnerships
- Strengthen credibility in competitive industries
See what happens when professionals stop using DIY photos and start showing up strategically.
Before
Outdated, inconsistent, or generic imagery that fails to convey expertise.
After
Polished, on-brand photos that communicate trust and professionalism across every platform.

Got questions? We’ve got you.
BrandShots Live is designed to make you feel prepared, supported, and excited for your big day. Here are the most common questions we get — with answers that’ll help you know exactly what to expect.
What if I’m not photogenic / hate being on camera?
You’re in good company. Many people feel that way before stepping in front of the camera.
Our photographers specialize in working with real professionals, not models. They’ll guide you with posing, expressions, and little adjustments that make a big difference. You don’t need to know what to do — we’ll help you feel comfortable and confident so your photos look natural and genuine.
Do I get to choose my photos?
Yes. After the event, you’ll receive a private online gallery to review your images.
You’ll choose your favourites based on your ticket level, and if you’d like more, you’ll have the option to purchase additional photos after you’ve seen them.
Can I upgrade my image package later?
Yes. Once you’ve seen your photos, you can upgrade your package if you’d like more images than what’s included in your ticket.
We’ll share those details after the event so you can decide once you’ve seen the results.
What if I can’t stay for the full day?
That’s okay. BrandShots Live runs on a clear schedule, so each attendee knows exactly when to check in for styling, their photoshoot, and the workshops.
You’ll get your personalized time blocks before the event, so you can plan around your session and still make the most of your experience.
What happens after the event?
After BrandShots Live, you’ll receive your proof gallery along with access to our digital Photo Usage Playbook.
It’s designed to help you make the most of your new photos — showing you how to use them across LinkedIn, your website, proposals, and social media to build credibility and attract new opportunities.
