She is a Swedish-speaking Finnish actress with a very characteristic voice. You do not need to see her; it is enough to hear her voice pinpoint her.

About the photo shoot
My original idea behind this photograph was to show Stina’s statuesque posture. To me, she has always been like a redwood tree, albeit much shorter, but with her feet/roots firmly attached to the ground. But as it often happens, things happen on a shoot that you can not imagine. In this case, Stina approach the set wearing her specs, and I grabbed the chance to use them as a prop. You very seldom see her with her specs on anyway.
