Angelic Grunge Photography

'The Haunted' by Daniel Archer is Gritty, Glam and Gorgeous

When I first saw 'The Haunted' by Daniel Archer, I thought of 90s grunge fashion icons like Courtney Love. Models Lara Lethbridge and Sally Gordon, who is also the stylist for this shoot, are adorned in rosary beads, wooden crosses and angelic white knits. As they lounge languidly, scowling through super-smoky eyes, I can't help but think that this is how grunge was meant to look--glamorous, but with a gritty edge.

For 'The Haunted' by Daniel Archer, the photographer was assisted by Phillip Papadis; Stephanie Walker is the artisan behind the models' makeup and hair.
