Biography
I write and photograph for print & digital media. I favor food, which often involves wild edibles and foraging. I love the art of a crafted cocktail and the storytelling that often accompanies it. I am a qualified wine sommelier and love wine without pomp and ceremony. If there is a wild beach I am in my happy place. I can usually be found writing, cooking, foraging and beaching in one of my three favourite places on the planet - Nova Scotia, Cape Town or North Carolina. My writing and photographs have been published worldwide in magazines, newspapers and online.

By Colleen Thompson Verified| Cape Fear Living Verified Updated: 6 hours agoThere is something timelessly charming about old Florida, complete with its calming sea foam color palette, palm tree prints and slow twirling ceiling fans - a nostalgia that belongs to another time. These remnants of a simpler, more colorful era are becoming increasingly rare as the Sunshine State transforms, overtaken by cruise ships, towering condos, and cookie-cutter chains that dominate its beachfronts.
By Colleen Thompson Verified| Saltscapes Magazine Verified Barbecue, a cooking technique as old as time and rooted in American culture, is an art form all its own. The smoky, caramelized taste of perfectly grilled meat — ribs, brisket, or even chicken — makes mouths water. But the art of barbecue goes beyond just cooking meat. It’s the process, tools, and patience that create those unforgettable flavours. Each step requires precision and expertise, from choosing the right wood to seasoning with the perfect rub.
