The Smiling Priest

The Pretty Priest

Time for another updated Stranger portrait. This is the priest Sara. I first met her last summer when I visited the church where she works as I was hoping to take a few photos from the church tower. Since then we have met a few times. I took this portrait during the Haninge Day celebrations at Lake Rudan last month. We talked for a while and I asked if anything fun had happened since I took that first portrait and Sara told me that she had been interviewed and photographed for the Russian version of Marie Claire since we last met. There are no female priests in Russia so I'm sure she was a big hit in the magazine.
