East End

Mike McLaughlin is a photographer specializing in architecture and landscapes. He has a background in quantitative analysis which informs his rigorous approach to composition and manifests itself in his technical precision and ordered style. His advanced post-processing skills enable both a more idealized view of the world as well as enhanced and sometimes purely imagined interpretations of subject. In a 2018 profile Hamptons Art Hub aptly summed up his work as “distinguished by minimalism and simplicity paired with crisp focus, clean lines and absence of extraneous detail”.

Initially self-taught he developed his skills through course work at the International Center of Photography in New York City. His work has won numerous awards including the Catherine and Theo Hios Landscape Award (Guild Hall), Salmagundi Club Award (Salmagundi Club), and First Place in East End Arts’ 2nd Annual National exhibit. He has exhibited in solo and group shows across Long Island and in Manhattan.
