spooky seasonat ivy anchor

a permanent aura camera is moving into the studio on south adams before halloween, and it's staying.

before halloween · date soon
◆ what an aura photo is

not a filter.

the lens reads the light actually coming off you: its colour, contrast and brightness, and paints the portrait from that. seven bands, one read, about ninety seconds.

what each colour means 
◆ same girl, two rooms
Jordan's first aura print, orange heat
morning · orange heat 
Jordan's second aura print, taken in a different room, cyan signal
new room · cyan signal 
◆ already on the wall

cam read red.

our nail tech sat for the lens before it ever moved in and read red force. she was an aura of the week on @aura.refract. jordan glowed orange heat. you’re next.

◆ how it goes

sit down. hold still. glow.

1

sit down, one tap.

our camera, our lens. nothing for you to bring.

2

your aura develops on screen.

a real portrait of your light, not a filter.

3

take it home.

the portrait set goes straight to your phone.

◆ made for october

bring the girls. come in costume.

the lens doesn't care what you're dressed as. it reads the light either way, so the witch hat stays on.

costume night

your aura, in character.

come dressed up and get read as whoever you came as. one print for you, one for the group chat.

girls' night

lashes, nails, then the lens.

book a set with jordan or camryn, then sit for your aura on the way out.

the coven

see who glows what.

bring your friends and line the prints up. nobody ever reads the same.

event nights are being planned now. dates go up on @theivyanchorcollective and @aura.refract first.
