Meira

Meira

Scouting for portraits in Handen I noticed a woman out on a brisk walk, but as I could see that she was listening to music, I decided not to disturb her. Ten minutes later when I saw here again I changed my mind. This is Meira. A very unusual name that her mother picked because she (mom that is), had a friend called Maire when she lived in Finland. Meira works at Stockholm South General Hospital as a Certified Nursing Assistant. She's a fitness fanatic. She works out at least four times every week. When she's not jogging, she's at the gym taking spinning classes or aerobic classes. She's a mother of three, and before the kids came she worked out every day of the week.

What a good example she sets for her children.

It is good to have three kids and not so much time to work out as earlier. Kids prohibit fittnessaddiction! Great portrait.

She looks young to have three children. All that working out must keep her in good shape. :) Another really nice portrait.

Spinning, pole exercising -- the world of Haninge fitness classes sounds pretty varied!

Very much so AB! And all these portraits taken by a bicycle nut!

Raising three kids should top any amount of organized work-out. One would be enough to keep me busy.

You are very good, Steffe, at getting some of the most casual and best portraits I have seen on the internet. This one of Meira is excellent. Keep up the good work.
