A model’s book
I'm a model in Addis Ababa. Everything you see here was shot for a designer, a magazine or a runway, and brands reach me through my agency.
About
Hi, I'm Aster
I was scouted at a university fashion show in Addis Ababa when I was nineteen and signed with my agency the same year. Since then I have walked for Ethiopian designers who work in handwoven cotton, and shot campaigns in Nairobi, Kigali and Dar es Salaam.
A good photograph is mostly a long walk and a short breath. I started writing down what I do before a show so my younger cousins could use it, and that became the playbook.
