About the Judge: 

Sacramento resident Michele McCormick is a widely exhibited photographer. She entered the fine arts arena in 2012, and her images have since been frequently honored and exhibited. In 2015 and 2017 her work was included in the prestigious Crocker Kingsley show. Her images have been exhibited at numerous locations, including juried shows at venues including the California State Fair Fine Arts exhibit, Los Angeles 1650 Gallery, Portland’s Black Box Gallery, Carmel’s Center for Photographic Art and local galleries and events including Viewpoint Photographic Gallery, Blue Line Gallery, Lodi’s Spring Art Annual, the Auburn Artwalk and the KVIE Art Auction along with many other area exhibits.


Her wide ranging portfolio includes portraiture, landscape, travel, animals, food and fine art. 


In the COVID era, her work has taken on a new direction. Deprived of many of her usual photography themes and subjects, she expanded her long-standing interest in migratory bird photography and, recognizing that Sacramento has a rich avian population throughout the year, she began to focus on bird photography – and found herself immersed in a new passion.
