Michael Brunk

Welcome to my site! I've been working in photography for over 30  years. I'm currently the full-time Director of Communications & Multimedia Design for the Snoqualmie Indian Tribe. Prior to that I worked part time as a photojournalist for South King Media in Washington State. I also do theater photography in and around the Seattle area. As part of my photography work I am an FAA licensed drone pilot for commercial aerial photography and video.

I shoot most of my stills with a Nikon D850 full-frame DSLR with a variety of lenses.  When travelling, I often shoot photos with a compact Olympus PEN-F 4/3rds mirrorless camera. I operate a variety of drones, including the DJI Mavic 2 Pro, the DJI Mavic Pro and the DJI Mini 2.
