It's been roughly a year now, Ace Ghanaian photo model Philomena Afi Esinam Antonio has been professionally modelling here in Ghana. Afi as she is fondly called by her friends and family says for her, modelling is more like a hobby and it is something she loves doing even though deep down in her heart she knows it is a career. ‘For me, I love modelling and I see it more as a hobby rather than a job'' she said.
I realised I didn't have the height to be a runway model so I opted to be a photo model if not a runway model. Each photo shoot has a variety of excitements which makes each day a new experience.'' she said during an interview with GhLinks.
Afi hails from Anloga in the Volta region; she went to 48 engineers J.H.S at Teshie camp and proceeded to Nungua Senior High School to study Visual arts. She later entered Takoradi Polytechnic to study fashion design.
The 30 year old freelance model is the C.E.O of Sparklez Modelling Agency and a producer of an upcoming television show dubbed Celebrity Delivery TV show which is currently being recorded. The concept of the show is to use celebrities to deliver messages or gifts on behalf of their fans.
For Afi, the competition is intense and believes that a competitive industry will not only demand from a model but will also allow you to challenge yourself. Afi is one Ghanaian model looking forward for more opportunities and encourages young people out there who want to take modeling as a career to work hard and she quotes "more grease to your elbow."
