Mike Butt

Mike Butt is a documentary photographer whose work often focuses on social and environmental issues, exploring how people are influenced by their surroundings. The work is often shot traditionally following his passion for straight documentary narratives, allowing the viewer to make a connection with the images thorough an elliptical narrative.

Butt’s work has been recognised both nationally and internationally with publications such as The Royal Photographic Society, Vice, and Shutter Hub.
