About Us
Now, more than ever, images play a crucial role
in the success of your marketing strategy.
Engaging and relevant photos pull in your audience, resulting in more shares and clicks on your content.
When you partner with Show Ready, we use our marketing background and creative eye to produce consistently stunning, brand aligned images, that showcase your event and tell your story.
Our Story
Owner and principal photographer, Irja Elisa Tannlund, began photographing events in 2000. Frustrated with the lack of images available to her as an event venue marketer, she set out to create the images she needed to showcase the space to potential clients. After nearly a decade honing her craft, Irja made it official, hanging up her shingle in 2009.
Since then, Irja and the Show Ready team have photographed over 1300 events throughout the Bay Area, nationally, and internationally.
The Show Ready Team
The Show Ready team is collective of talented and successful working photographers. In addition to the work we produce together, each team member has their own thriving photography business and areas of specialization. We support each other’s growth both personally and professionally, and count ourselves lucky to call each other friends and colleagues.
