FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

( please note these FAQs only pertain to AURA AURA not Color of Our Energy sessions )

How do I book a session?

Check our Detroit and Tour pages for upcoming available dates, or follow us on Instagram for announcements.

I’d like to book a session for a special occasion, how do I do that?

If you have a specific date in mind that you’re looking for in Detroit, you can submit a Private Session request here.

Do you take walk-ins?

Sessions are by appointment only.

What is the cost of a session?

Pricing varies depending on the type of session experience you are looking for. Mini Sessions are available during open studio dates seasonally, Private Sessions each month and by request. All sessions on tour are Mini Sessions unless otherwise specified.

Do you offer group rates or special discounts?

As multiple hard costs are associated with each and every single image Eileen shoot on rare, vintage, out-of-production, deadstock professional packfilm - discounts are not available for services.

Do you have a cancellation or waitlist?

I’m interested in getting a frame for my portrait, what size is the image?

Portraits measure 3.25" x 4.25"

How many people can be in a portrait?

We are able to accommodate up to 2 persons per portrait together during a Duo Session.

Do you take family portraits?

If you have a small child under the age of 6, they are able to be in a Duo Session sitting with 2 adults. Please note this portrait will only show the aura of the adults as our equipment is unable to read the energy of more than 2 persons at a time. We are unable to accommodate more than one child under the age of 6 in a Duo Session sitting with 2 adults.

Can I bring in my child for a solo portrait?

We are happy to accommodate children ages 6+ for solo sittings. The hands of children under the age of 6 are unfortunately too small for the adult-sized hand sensors to be 100% accurate. We are unable to photograph newborns, infants or toddlers by themselves.

Can I bring my newborn, infant, baby or toddler under the age of 6 for a Duo Portrait with me?

Yes! However, because their hands are too small for the adult sized hand sensors, their full aura will not show up in the portrait. The portrait will reveal moreso how your energy is when your child is with you. This is not a true combination of your auras, like with our typical 2-person sittings. Here is an example.

Is this process safe for pregnant women?

Absolutely! Eileen has photographed many expecting mothers. Know that this shows only the energy of the mother being pregnant with her baby. The baby’s aura / energy does not show up as separate from mom, or as a color over mom’s belly. Here is an example of a woman 18 weeks into her pregnancy.

Do you take solo portraits of pets?

Yes! This is a service offered exclusively in Detroit with special equipment. Pet Sessions are private sessions, by request. Review this page for more information, or to suggest your city for a future visit!

Can you take a portrait of my pet and I together?

Unfortunately since our equipment is not designed for humans and animals together, we do not offer this service.

Are you coming to a city near me?

We are always open to suggestions for new major cities to travel to! Sign up for the mailing list on our Contact Page to vote for a major city near you to be considered for a possible future tour stop. Our Tour Page will list the cities we are traveling to in the near future when dates have been confirmed.

I had a Mini Session during Open Studio / On Tour but cannot remember everything that was said. Can you email me an interpretation?

Interpretations are only available in person during mini sessions. Every session includes an informational card to take home which breaks down the meanings of colors and the areas in which they appear. This page on our website has also been created as a resource for you to revisit your portrait in your own time.

Do you offer remote / virtual readings /regular photograph for those of us not located in Detroit?

We are unable to read your aura just by looking at you through the internet or a regular photo which is why you are photographed using a specialized biofeedback analog camera which can only be done in person.

Are you still offering sessions in Seattle?

You can book a photo session via our sister project Color of Our Energy at Create Within.

What is your cancellation / refund policy?

We respect your time and energy, and we hope you will respect ours also. All session purchases are final. We cannot accommodate reschedules, cancellations, refunds or no-shows. We are unable to transfer your session to a later date, time, a different location, or provide a credit. Arrivals of 10 minutes past your scheduled appointment time for Mini Sessions, 20 minutes past your scheduled appointment time for Private Sessions are considered a no show - resulting in forfeiture of your session. If you're unable to make it to your session for any reason, you're more than welcome to send a friend in your place, gift your session, or transfer your time slot to someone else, similar to a ticket for a concert, sporting event, or pre-paid dinner reservation you can no longer attend.
