Scott
Butler

Creative Director

Born and raised in the cultural hub of London, Scott Butler refuses to let the alternative go unseen. With his lens and distinct eye for unconventional visuals, he is changing the creative landscape around him, and pushing what it means to centralise unheard voices and forgotten truths.

His creative reach now expands beyond borders and international lines. From his early design work on campaigns for Justin Bieber, Rhianna and Rita Ora, it became clear that Butler was not shy about pushing creative boundaries no matter who he works with. In recent years, Butler has taken his innovation to the next level: spearheading the running of photography studios and documentary production in not just Chelsea, London, but locations including Uganda, Kenya, Ghana, and Mauritius.

Though Collection Magazine is a new endeavour, Butler has ensured that it creates a ground-breaking visual experience for readers all over. His print knowledge is not limited to Collection; Butler has previously shot covers for various successful magazines, working with individuals like KSI, 6lack, and even Canada’s very own Daniel Caesar.

A national award winning designer, creative director, photographer, and overall visionary. With such a wide repertoire of skills, it’s hard to predict what Butler will do next. However, one thing is certain: his work will continue to advocate for those that need it.
