Philippa has her Natives in Namibia and was born on a Farm,
north-western of Namibia. She never shared similar interest
like normal farm children, in getting her little dresses as filthy as
possible by playing in the bush. She rather attended Ballet
classes at the age of 5 years and moved on towards playing
inline and ice hockey at a later stage of her life.
Other side line activities where playing piano, violin
and recorder but never continued her interest up to today.
She spent quite some time in a Hostel in
Otjiwarongo, Namibia and completed her
high school career in Cape Town, South Africa.
“I have always been very fond of the
camera…” Philippa states, “…being either
in front or behind the actual taking of the footage.”
Philippa has had her first encounter in the modelling industry
at the age of seventeen, with the Social-Content Platform-
Namlish.com. Philippa travelled France where she had
a basic insight into the French language and the
vast French culture. Nonetheless, she is still completing
her Batchelor of Arts Motion Picture Degree,
in the fields of Cinematography.
As a junior upcoming model she partook in the
Ms Longbeach pageant and won herself the 2006 head-title.
Further opportunities arose from thereon, as she
received the chance to participate in the
FHM Models competition 2010 where she
sailed right through to the Top Ten.
“It is a great honour for me to have accomplished
this step in life as well as to work with the FHM Crew.”
This has definitely opened some doors for Philippa
and further Interests can be gathered at the
official FHM Homepage at Philippa’s FHM Profile.
Should anyone consider to find out more about
her and the field of modelling or the field of Arts
then you may contact Philippa on her Facebook Page.
The personality traits of Philippa can be considered
as a ‘fascinated and honest’ personality. Her active
lifestyle revolve around dancing and fishing,
which we at Manni-Photography find quite supportive
since it isn’t usual to see such likings in Junior upcoming
Models. Philippa’s last statement made us dazzle
with amazement “I am interested in many forms of creativity.
Without sport, I start fading. True happiness and
harmony is the most important thing to me.”
… what true statements they indeed are! We wish
Philippa all the best for her upcoming career
opportunities and great successes along the way.
