See Beyoncé Behind the Scenes of Her ‘Vogue’ Cover Shoot

By Jonathan Sawyer in Music

Last week we got a look at Beyoncé on the cover of Vogue‘s September issue. After being given full creative control, Bey was photographed by 23-year-old Tyler Mitchell, accounting for the first time a person of color shot a cover for the magazine. Now, Vogue is back sharing a behind-the-scenes look at the monumental cover shoot.

In a behind-the-scenes video, which sees @Beyonce on set for her legendary photoshoot with 23-year-old @tylersphotos, we are able to share in the star's personal journey. “I am accepting of who I am. I will continue to explore every inch of my soul and every part of my artistry,” she says in the September issue cover story. “I want to learn more, teach more, and live in full.” Tap the link in our bio to watch our September issue come alive.

The clip is backed by Curtis Mayfield’s “The Makings of You,” as we not only see Beyoncé on set, but also her children, Blue Ivy, Rumi, and Sir Carter.
