Why People Sit for a Portrait
What are you painting for?
Five reasons most sitters come to us. Pick the one that fits and we'll show you the styles built for it.
Legacy
Painted to outlast the year.
A finished portrait for the wall — the version your grandchildren will recognize you in.
Recommended packs
Mythic Self
A version of yourself you have never seen.
Goddess on a lake at dawn. Mountain wanderer above the cloud-sea. Cavalier with hounds. Painted as the figure inside.
Recommended packs
With a Second Sitter
Painted together — the bond on the wall.
Every style works as a double portrait — partner, parent, lifelong friend, or a beloved companion animal. Both sitters rendered with the same painterly care.
Recommended packs
Gift
A heirloom-quality gift, not a novelty.
Anniversary, retirement, milestone birthday, in-memory. A painted portrait beats another candle every time.
Recommended packs
Editorial
Magazine-page composure.
For the founder headshot, the speaker bio, the press kit. White seamless, cinematic noir, instant film — kept tasteful, kept dignified.

Portrait Worlds
Curated, not catalogued.
A selected library of portrait worlds — old master, romantic, editorial, mythic — each painted in its own historical language.
Winterhalter Court
Imperial glamour — hall-of-mirrors opulence and diamond light.
Vienna Secession
Gold leaf and line — turn-of-century Vienna at its most gilded.
Edwardian Salon
Confident alla prima brushwork — Gilded Age elegance preserved.
Art Deco Glamour
Lacquered planes and geometric modernity — Lempicka-school.
Academic Muse
Luminous salon realism — Bouguereau-tradition academic finish.
Art Nouveau
Ornamental belle époque portraiture — botanical and gilded.
Renaissance Master
Sfumato and psychological depth — da Vinci's tender observation.
Editorial Monochrome
Contemporary studio clarity — white seamless, high contrast.

Likeness Comes First
A portrait worth remembering.
Aura Archive is built to preserve the person in the original photo — first — before transforming the setting, clothing, light, and atmosphere into fine art. The face on the wall is yours. The world it sits in is borrowed from the painters we love.
When you choose to print, your work is produced on Hahnemühle fine art paper and gallery-wrapped canvas using archival pigment inks trusted by museums worldwide. Each piece is built to last generations, not seasons.
Free to preview. Premium to own. The painting behind your face should be one you'd stop for.

Common Questions
Honest answers, before you sit.
Yes. Likeness is our hard rule. Every prompt is built around preserving bone structure, exact eye color, brow shape, nose, mouth, hair, age, ethnicity, freckles, and expression. The setting and the surface change — your face does not. If a preview ever drifts off-likeness, the regeneration is free.
Giving Back
Every portrait gives back.
10% of net profits are donated to a charitable partner aligned with our values. Beneficiary to be announced soon — in the meantime, every commission keeps that promise on the books.
A portrait is not just
what you looked like.
It is how you are remembered.
