Dark romance is usually a spine-chillin' and lovey-dovey mix which is incorporated in a few editorials every now and then, including the STIL Magazine Emily Baker issue. The eerily creepy cemetery has a couple romancing around that is definitely a break from bright and glamorous shoots.

Captured by David K. Shields, the shoot blends misery and romance under one roof. Models Emily Baker and Nathan Sutherland carry out the gothic games while posing in the cemetery, wearing black overalls in the intensely gloomy atmosphere. Emily is seen sporting pitch dark silhouettes, minimal makeup and jewelry.

The Australian glossy magazine sure has a dark theme going that will sweep away the viewers' attention. So if you want to dive into the Halloween mood, then the STIL Magazine Emily Baker shoot sure brings on the spine-chilling feel.
