Aura Photo Booth for Events

An aura photo booth is a station your guests step up to, sit for a portrait, and walk away holding a photograph of their own energy field. Ours runs on real instant film. The image develops in their hands while they watch, and they keep the physical print. There is no screen, no app, and no digital file standing in for the real thing.

We are based in Los Angeles and we travel. Since 2016 we have brought our aura photo booth to corporate events, brand activations, product launches, holiday parties, and weddings across California and beyonAura photo booth at a tech conference - HALO AuragraphicHALO aura photo booth installation for Absorb exhibition at a tech conference | LA Convention Center

Why We Shoot Film

Instant Polaroid film is what makes the booth feel alive. The camera reads the energy field through hand sensors and exposes it onto authentic instant film stock, and the image develops in the open air while the guest holds it. Because it is film, each portrait carries the depth and warmth that only a real photographic emulsion can give. There is nothing to download, and no version of the image exists anywhere but in their hand. It is a small piece of craft guests do not expect at an event, and it is the reason the line forms on its own.

The Experience

A guest sits, places their hands on the sensors, and holds still for the exposure. A few seconds later the portrait begins to develop. For events that want more than the photo, we can add a short reading of the energy after it is captured or for faster paced events you can run photo-only for volume.

We have brought the booth to corporate parties and brand activations for companies including LinkedIn, Netflix, and Lululemon, and to weddings and private celebrations where the print doubles as the favor guests take home.

For Planners & Agencies

Our aura photo booth rental arrives fully staffed. We handle setup and breakdown ourselves and are self-contained. The footprint scales from small to large, it runs on standard power, and a certificate of insurance is available on request.

Booking

Lead time of eight to ten weeks is ideal, and popular dates in the holiday and wedding seasons go early. Send us the date, city, venue, approximate guest count, and run time, and whether you want photo-only or photo-with-readings, and we will come back with availability and a quote.
