Lecia Michelle is passionate about our winged friends and takes every opportunity she can to capture moments that show birds’ unique personalities.

Once she picked up her first camera in 2022, she was hooked. She gravitated towards birds because of the challenge and adventure of taking photos that both tell a story and entertain.

You can find her every day with her Nikon Z8 and Nikon NIKKOR 180-600 lens roaming around a forest or lake looking for the best subjects to practice her craft.

In addition to her photography, Lecia Michelle is a published author working on her second book, a thriller/sci-fi novel. And of course, it includes birds.
