Aura Photography in Florida — Events, Pop-ups & Experiences Across the Sunshine State
Florida has always had a certain energy to it — vibrant, electric, and full of life. So it only makes sense that aura photography has found a home here.
Soulshine Aura has been steadily growing our presence across the Sunshine State, bringing our signature aura photography experience to some of Florida's most exciting events, brands, and venues. From South Beach influencer activations to university brand bazaars, we've been showing up across Florida in a big way — and we're just getting started.
Here's a look at what we've been up to in Florida and how you can be part of it.
Recent Florida Events
ResortPass x Valeria Lipovetsky — The Sunny, Miami Beach | May 2026
In May 2026, Soulshine Aura was thrilled to be part of an exclusive influencer event hosted by ResortPass in collaboration with lifestyle creator and entrepreneur Valeria Lipovetsky. The event took place at The Sunny hotel in North Beach, Miami — a stunning setting that was the perfect backdrop for aura photography.
Guests had the opportunity to sit down, connect with their energy, and walk away with a vibrant aura portrait — a one-of-a-kind keepsake from an unforgettable afternoon. It was exactly the kind of event we love being part of: intentional, beautiful, and full of good energy.
Shop TODAY Stages: The Leap x Zenni — University of Miami | April 2026
Earlier this spring, Soulshine Aura joined Zenni at the Brand Bazaar as part of Shop TODAY Stages' inspiring series, The Leap, held at the University of Miami. The Leap brings together students and famous alumni for an immersive experience designed to help the next generation prepare for the real world — complete with inspiring keynotes, brand activations, and everything in between.
We were proud to be part of such a meaningful event, capturing the auras of students stepping boldly into their next chapter. There's something incredibly special about photographing someone's energy at a moment like that — right on the edge of everything that's coming next.
Pop-ups Across the South Florida Metropolitan Area
Beyond private events and brand activations, Soulshine Aura hosts regular public aura photography pop-up events throughout the South Florida Metropolitan Area — including Miami, Fort Lauderdale, and Palm Beach.
Our pop-ups are open to everyone — no private event required. Just show up, sit down, and see your soul in color. Each guest receives their aura portrait on the spot along with a comprehensive color guide to help them understand what their colors mean.
Pop-up spots fill up fast, so pre-booking is always recommended. Check our Appointments page for upcoming Florida pop-up dates and locations.
Bring Aura Photography to Your Florida Event
While our pop-ups are concentrated in the South Florida Metropolitan Area, our private event coverage spans the entire state. Whether you're planning a corporate event in Orlando, a brand activation in Miami, a bachelorette weekend in Palm Beach, or a private celebration anywhere across the Sunshine State — Soulshine Aura is ready to bring the magic to you.
Our Florida team is local to the South Florida area, fully mobile, and available for events of all sizes — from intimate gatherings of 15 to large-scale activations of 300+. We handle everything so you don't have to, and we'll get back to you within 24 hours of submitting an inquiry.

Aura Photography for Corporate Events
There's a moment at every event we take part in. The line forms. Someone places their hands on the sensors, the room goes quiet, and a single Polaroid slides out — still developing, a halo of color blooming around their face. They hold it up. Someone else leans in. And just like that, your activation stops being a booth and becomes the thing people are gathered around.
That's what aura photography does at a corporate event. It turns passive attendees into participants — and it sends every one of them home with a keepsake that has your brand on it.
But a great aura activation isn't really about the camera. It's about who's running it, how the line feels, and whether your guests walk away with something they actually keep. That's where the Soulshine difference lives.
What Aura Photography Actually Is
Aura photography uses hand sensors to read the electromagnetic energy your body radiates, then translates that energy into color. Place your hands down, hold still for a breath, and the camera captures both you and your field — rendered as a glowing wash of light around your portrait.
Every aura is one of a kind. The colors map to mood, personality, the energy you're carrying in that exact moment — and our readers walk each guest through what theirs means. It's part portrait, part conversation, part tiny moment of being truly seen. At a corporate event, that last part is rarer than you'd think.
Why It Works for Brand Activations
Forget the listicle. Here's what your event actually needs to do, and how this delivers on each one.
It earns dwell time. Trade show floors and brand activations live and die by how long someone stays. An aura station holds a line — not a frustrated one, a curious one. People wait because they want to see their color, and while they wait, they're talking to your team and looking at your brand.
Every guest leaves with content they keep. Most event swag is in a hotel trash can by checkout. An aura Polaroid goes on a fridge, a desk, a mirror. It's the rare giveaway with a shelf life measured in years — and when you brand the photo holder, your logo lives right there with it.
It photographs itself. You don't have to beg people to post. A glowing, holographic portrait of their own energy is the kind of thing people share unprompted. Tag your activation, and the user-generated content rolls in on its own.
It speaks the wellness language. For employee appreciation days, wellness weeks, and culture moments, aura photography lands in exactly the right register — human, reflective, a little magic. Colleagues see how their energy reads side by side, and it opens up a kind of conversation the usual catered lunch never will.
The Soulshine Signature — Real Film, Real Keepsake
Here's what makes the moment land.
We shoot on real film. Each aura develops as an Instax Wide print right there in your guest's hand — warm, tactile, slightly imperfect in the way only a real photograph is. It's not a screen, not a digital download they'll forget in their camera roll. It's a physical thing they hold while the color blooms into view, and that little wait is half the magic.
A film print is a keepsake, not a printout. It goes on the fridge, the desk, the mirror — and when it's tucked into a photo holder with your logo, your brand goes right there with it. Months later, it's still on display. That's a shelf life most event swag can only dream of.
Brands We've Lit Up
We've brought Soulshine to activations for Capital One, Meta, Nordstrom, MGM, and Johns Hopkins — corporate teams, retail moments, wellness weeks, and brand events across the DMV. We know how to load into a high-rise, work a tight footprint, keep a line moving, and make every single guest feel like the experience was built for them. Full list of our recent partnerships can be found here.
That's the part that doesn't show up in a quote: the readers, the pacing, the care. It's why guests rave and why brands rebook.
Where We Bring the Light
Soulshine is based in Frederick, Maryland, with a studio you can visit and a fully mobile setup that travels across the DMV — Washington DC, Maryland, and Virginia — for corporate events, pop-ups, and brand activations. We also activate in Florida, with growing roots in Orlando, Tampa, and Miami.
Wherever your event is, we bring the whole experience to you — camera, film, sensors, readers, and all.
How to Fold It Into Your Activation
A few ways brands get the most out of it:
Brand the takeaway. Custom photo holders with your logo turn every print into a tiny piece of branded content guests actually want.
Give it a hashtag. A simple campaign tag turns the natural share instinct into reach you can track.
Place it where the line helps you. Position the station near what you want people engaging with — it pulls traffic toward you, not away.
Let the reading do the talking. The color interpretation is the conversation starter your team can lean into. It's a warmer open than "Can I tell you about our product?"
FAQs
Is it safe? Does it touch anything invasive? Not at all. It's completely non-invasive — hands rest on sensors, the same gentle principle behind a fitness tracker. Nothing is scanned or beamed.
How long does each photo take?About a few minutes start to finish — capture, develop, and a short personalized reading. Lines move at a steady, happy pace.
How much space and power do you need? A compact footprint and a single standard outlet. We fit into trade show floors, office lobbies, and VIP lounges with ease.
Can you brand the photos? Yes — custom photo holders, your logo, your event branding. The print becomes a keepsake and a marketing piece in one.
Do you travel? We currently service the entire DMV and Florida — Orlando, Tampa, and Miami included. We love to travel outside of these places too. Just submit an event request and we can bring our set-up to you.
Let's Make Your Event the One They Talk About
If you're planning a corporate event, a product launch, a wellness week, or a brand activation anywhere in the DMV or Florida, Soulshine brings something guests genuinely remember — real film, real energy, and a keepsake with your name on it.
