Albino girl known as Snow White becomes as internet sensation in Siberia

Nariyana is the second child of an ordinary and typically black-haired family in the Sakha Republic, or Yakutia, but unlike all her relatives she is strikingly blonde, her skin like porcelain.

She is pictured here with her 14 year old sister Karina. 

Photographer Vadim Rufov said of Nariyana: 'She is the most unusual person I've met. 

'A Sakha girl called Nariyana. She is albino. 

'She is incredibly artistic and she spent two hours posing for me. 

'From the second we met, we started talking like we knew each other. 

'Her eyes don't like bright light, but, despite this, pictures came out brilliantly. I love them.'

Mother Elena said Nariyana is the only albino in her and husband Albert's families. 

'We have already got many offers from modelling and advertising agencies but I don't want her to work yet,' she said. 

'She likes dancing and drawing in her free time. 

'When she grows up, she'll choose who she wants to be for herself. 

'When I ask her now, she says she wants to be a model.'

Elena added: 'I have three children. 

'The older one is 14, her name is Karina. Nariyana is 8. 

'They also have a brother Ayaan, a traditional Yakut name, and he's only 10 month old. 

'I am now on maternity leave. Ayaan is dark - and, well,  you must have seen Karina in Instagram?'

Sakha is the largest region in the Russian Federation, and is famous as being the coldest. 

Now it has its own Snow White.
