Author Information

World-renowned child photographers, REGIS & KAHRAN BETHENCOURT are a husband-and-wife team and the imaginative forces behind CreativeSoul Photography. The pair gained global recognition with their AfroArt series. The collection, which showcases the beauty and versatility of afro hair, was conceived as a way to empower Black kids around the world. The images went viral after early supporters Will Smith, Jada Pinkett, Taraji P. Henson, Alicia Keys, and Common, among others, praised the series on social media. Their holistic approach to capturing one-of-a-kind moments has allowed their work to be featured on BBC News, CNN, CBS National News, Teen Vogue, Glamour Brazil, BET and more.
