Pete Doherty- A well known 'Rock and Roll Star'... It's almost as if someone took all the drugs, drink and dirt from the old 60' and 70's rock bands such as Rolling Stones and created a love child, to show off the dirty side of Rock. Despite his boyish- looks, and clearly lost ways (with all the substances and what not) he somehow manages to create perfection in Rock music, performing to a amazing standard despite his pupils being wide with more than just adrenalin.
Hedi Slimane captures Pete's essence perfectly in his 2004 photoshoot, backstage at a BabyShambles gig. His use of Black and White and Contrast are captivating, and really give the vintage Rock effect, which we lack now days in modern photography.
