I take photographs to convey a sense of place. Images that tell their own stories and stir emotion. Images with roots. For me, food is one of the greatest storytellers, whether in the form of a recipe, freshly picked fruit or wild edible. Colleen Thompson Writer. Photographer. Raconteur Photography I take photographs to evoke a sense of place. Images that tell their own stories and stir emotions. Images with roots. For me, food is one of the greatest storytellers, whether in the form of a recipe, a freshly picked piece of fruit or a wild edible foraged in a forest. The harbinger of the seasons, captured in a moment. I am happiest in wild, open spaces and I spend a lot of time chasing the light. Fortunately, where I live in, there is no shortage of wild coastline and magical light. SHACK LIFE SANCTUARY SUGARED SEEDED SHIMMER SHOWCASED

In the right light, at the right time, everything is extraordinary. ​ Amid a world and in a time that so readily gives us reasons to despair, the golden hour, on a wild walk, is still the most reliable wellspring of light. ​ Shimmering days seemingly help dissipate the self-involvement with which we humans often live through our turbulent times.
