Hi, I’m Michael McAuliffe a wildlife, landscape and seascape photographer based in Edmonds, Washington, near Seattle. I grew up in the area and can’t imagine living anywhere else. This region of amazing mountains, the waters of Puget Sound and the Pacific Ocean, and birds and other animals provides endless photography opportunities.
My photographs are available through Michael McAuliffe Photography as prints and images to license for publications or advertising. My specialty is large wall art printed on metal or canvas. I love these materials that make my Pacific Northwest scenery and wildlife images seem to pop off the walls of your home or business. It’s almost like being there!
My photographs have appeared in local and national publications that include The Seattle Times, Nature Photographer, Air & Space Smithsonian, Bird Watcher’s Digest, Real Northwest Living, My Edmonds News and Edmonds Living Local. I have had my work displayed at Seattle’s Museum of Flight in the 2015, 2017 and 2021Spirit of Flight juried Photography Exhibitions and at the Puget Sound Bird Fest. My photo “C-47 Ground Crew Takes a Break” was a finalist in the Air and Space Smithsonian 2017 photo contest.
I write for magazines and online publications and I’m available for freelance writing and photography assignments. My writing has been published in Air & Space Smithsonian, BirdWatching Magazine, Bird Watcher’s Digest, Northwest Travel & Life and Real Northwest Living.
