My friend Mary Lou is a sweet and amazing lady. At 101 years of age, she is the oldest original member of First United Methodist Church in High Point, North Carolina.

Great image Sam 👍🏻 She must have done a few things right to reach her amazing age and she looks great.

Yes she does! I asked her about her secret for longevity, she said “well, probably because I didn’t smoke or drink”. 🙂

Oh, I forgot to mention in the post I used a DZfilms 35 – 85mm cinema lens for this portrait at about 80mm. It’s subtle, but i can see a softer rolloff in the depth of field sharpness.
