Method to
the Magic

We like to think of aura photography as scientific magic that has the potential to inform your self-perception. It presents a mesmerizing way to capture the aura—or human energy field—that surrounds each individual. Utilizing Kirlian photography, a technique developed in 1939 and advanced in the 1970s by Guy Coggins, inventor of the AuraCam 6000 used by ILLUMINATE AURA, this process detects and transforms the subtle energy emitted by your body into a colorful, interpretive image that reflects your emotional and spiritual state.

Viewed from a holistic lens, aura photography is a powerful tool for self-discovery, offering insights into your current energetic and emotional landscape. We then analyze the colors and patterns within these images, revealing deeper truths about your energy flow and potential imbalances. However, the aura is not fixed—it evolves as you do, shifting and changing with life’s experiences.

Experience this alternative form of self-exploration through the capture of the colorful atmosphere that surrounds you. Be seen.

Process

At ILLUMINATE AURA Photography, we guide you toward a deeper understanding of your inner self, whether it’s at our home studio location or at an event. Just take a seat in our photo enclosure. Wear what makes you feel the most “you.” You'll place your hands on the camera’s hand sensors, which read your biomagnetic energy as data. Using an analog process, this data is then translated by an algorithm into specific colors, resulting in a radiant, colorful aura field projected around you on instant film—your unique, energetic imprint in that current moment.
