Senior 2024: Ava / by Hollie Macomber

Today’s Cup of Tea: Ali Shan Oolong Tea by The Tao of Tea. I love the taste of oolong tea, slightly floral, slightly sweet. This tea is dried and then twisted and tied into tiny little knots that unravel as they steep. The best part is that you can easily brew a cup or two from one teaspoon of leaves.

Time for another senior shoot, and I am so thrilled to share one of several shoots I was able to do in one of my favorite locations in the area. The town of Yellow Springs is the closest vibe to Northern California that I can find here in Ohio, and beside the eccentric downtown, there are several reserves and parks in the area—and during the fall, there is the Tecumseh Land Trust sunflower field! I was so excited when Ava choose several of these locations for her shoot. The light was perfect, and we were able to hit the sunflowers right at golden hour. It was simply magical!
