A photographer has created an image series exclusively featuring people who have albinism to show off the rare condition in a totally new light.
Angelina d’Auguste chose to photograph people with the condition after being drawn to images of Shaun Ross, an American model with albinism, and from there delved deeper into learning about the condition, which occurs in one in 18,000 to 20,000 people in America.
The resulting series, which made up Angelina’s senior thesis project at the Fashion Institute of Technology in New York City, was made to show the models’ ‘distinct, beautiful features in a positive way,’ she told Refinery29.
