Without meaning to be horribly pedantic this question is essentially meaningless without a rigorous definition of what is meant by the soul in this context.
I'd love to try and answer this question but I don't actually know what the question means.
I know this may sound like intellectual game playing and deliberate avoidance of the issue but the concept of soul is massively ambiguous and at best ill defined. Tell me what you mean and then I'll try and answer the question.
First impressions though, if I'm honest, No.
The belief that pictures steal your soul is a cultural myth and not supported by scientific evidence.

Here is a thought for you: many people believe in more than one soul mate. The Three soul mates theory is that we have one soul mate that walks with us through all life times, this person will be with us no matter when or where. The second soul mate is our true love, this person may be found for one life time and not the other but we will always know when this soul is found. The third soul mate is a temporary one that is meant for this lifetime, someone to help get us through. I think that this is the most beautiful of all soul mate theories and believe in it...
Some traditions of Paganism believe that the soul travels to Summerland, a kind of paradise. Almost all Pagans believe in reincarnation, so the soul would travel to another body after death.
