Magazine worthy portrait photography by Beautiful Soul Portraits
Title: Want to Look Like the Cover of Vogue? Here’s Why South Carolina’s Most Discerning Women Are Booking Their Photoshoots with Award Winning, Beautiful Soul Portraits.
Let’s talk about something most women don’t say out loud:
We want to look drop-dead gorgeous in photos. Not just pretty. Not just “decent.” But downright cover-worthy.
I'm talking about the kind of image you see on the front of Vogue — powerful, elegant, effortless, iconic.
And here’s the truth: you absolutely can.
You just need the right photographer.
Introducing the Only Magazine-Style Portrait Experience in South Carolina
I’m Kandice Marie, founder of Beautiful Soul Portraits, and my studio is where everyday women come to be captured like they belong on the front cover of a luxury fashion magazine — because they do.
What I offer is not just a photoshoot.
It’s a full-blown editorial-quality production, customized for real women who want something elevated, glamorous, timeless… and unapologetically luxurious.
From professional styling to magazine lighting, from hand-retouched images to posing direction that brings out your inner icon — every detail is done with intention and high fashion quality.
This Is the Vogue Moment You Deserve
You know that chill you get when you see a striking photo on a magazine cover? The intensity, the glow, the elegance — it’s not random. That look is created by someone who understands light, texture, wardrobe, makeup, mood, and emotion.
That’s what I bring to every single client.
Whether you're stepping in front of the camera for the first time in years or celebrating a personal milestone, I design each shoot like a creative director prepping for a major fashion campaign.
And let me be clear — no one else in South Carolina is doing this with the same creative techniques I am using to make you look like a seasoned model.
Sure, there are photographers who offer headshots or lifestyle pics. But if you want a custom luxe session that makes you look like you just stepped off the pages of Harper’s Bazaar, Elle, or Vogue, this is your studio.
High-End Quality You Can Feel
Every photo I deliver is worthy of print in the highest fashion publications. We're talking:
Precision lighting that highlights your best features and creates mood and drama
Flawless retouching that looks natural, not fake
Luxury wardrobe and styling guidance to help you look your absolute best
Professional hair and makeup artists trained in camera-ready glam
And most importantly: a photographer who knows how to bring out your power, presence, and elegance
You won’t walk away with a “nice picture.”
You’ll walk away with a work of art — a cover shot of your life.
Don’t Just Look Good. Be Iconic.
My clients are women who are done settling. They want photos that feel bold, confident, and cinematic — not stiff or overly posed. They want a look that’s editorial, rich in tone, dripping in elegance. Read her reviews!
