The one in the last pic on the right side, looks more like a model, than a Goth. Everything else fits, especially the local bloke.
Not all of us to for the heavy makeup... Styles can vary pretty wildly actually, the defining factor is music taste and anyone saying you have to look a certain way is a gatekeeper. I mean obviously some dark-er style is expected or you're not a "typical" goth, but it doesn't have to be black lipstick and heavy eyeshadow always. A lot like the Victorian style with lace etc rather than more modern fashion, myself included. I agree it's definitely a professional photoshoot though.
That's what i had in mind, is not always the looks. The last pic just looks so much like a professional photoshoot and her facial expression says everything, but Goth, to me.
I was gatekeeping without intention, sorry for that.
