Mike Butler, based in both Raleigh, North Carolina, and Miami, Florida, is recognized as one of the top architectural photographers in the industry. Named one of the Top Architectural Photographers by Hospitality Design, one of the Top 20 Under 40 by Brickell Magazine, and included among the Top Creatives in Miami, Mike brings a unique blend of technical expertise and artistic vision to every project.
As a producer and director, Mike created the award-winning short film La Foto, which documents his ambitious photographic project on the Virgilio Barco Library in Bogotá, Colombia—an architectural masterpiece by Rogelio Salmona. The film has been showcased at various film festivals, celebrating the intersection of photography, storytelling, and cultural heritage.
From 2010 to 2016, Mike co-founded and led the Elastic Mind Project, a social initiative that worked with underprivileged children in Bogotá, Colombia, specifically in Barrio Codito. The project focused on fostering creativity and critical thinking in marginalized communities. Learn more about this impactful initiative here: Elastic Mind Project on Facebook.
