After living three years at an orphanage in Tehran, she was adopted by a Swedish family. Sanna grew up with Swedish customs and did not know anything about her family in Iran. But starting to look for her roots, she eventually received a very special phone call - it was from her mother.
This happened in 1999 and was the beginning of many trips to Iran where Sanna met a long lost family, quite different from her adoptee family.
Sanna Sjöswärd is one of Sweden's most celebrated current photographers and her book has been very well received by Swedish media. I am looking forward to meet her later this summer to talk about the book and show more of her pictures to the readers of 591 Photography.
Please have a look at Sanna's ongoing exhibition "Engla Louise" on 591 Photography gallery. You may also visit her website www.sannafoto.se, where you will find out more about where to get the book.
