Beyoncé’s Vogue September issue cover made headlines for the fact that editor in chief Anna Wintour gave the singer creative control over the issue. Beyoncé helped choose Mitchell as the issue’s photographer and wrote the captions for the images. “It’s important to me that I help open doors for younger artists,” Beyoncé wrote in an article for the issue. “There are so many cultural and societal barriers to entry that I like to do what I can to level the playing field, to present a different point of view for people who may feel like their voices don’t matter.”
Since the Beyoncé cover shoot, Mitchell also photographed Zendaya for Vogue’s June 2019 issue and two other editorials for the magazine.Beyoncé Meets Prince Harry and Meghan Markle at ‘The Lion King’ UK PremiereWATCH: Blue Ivy’s Stylist Takes Us Into His World
