Chicago Architectural + Interior Photographer
You invest enormous time, talent and resources into creating exceptional spaces. I create photography and video that help those projects get noticed, on your website, in proposals, award submissions, publications, social media and the conversations that lead to what’s next.

A finished project is more than something to document. It’s an opportunity to show prospective clients what your firm can accomplish.
I work with architects, interior designers, developers and brands to create polished, design-focused imagery that communicates the thinking, craftsmanship and experience behind each space.
The result is a versatile collection of photographs you can use across your portfolio, proposals, press outreach, award submissions, presentations and social media, often for years after the shoot.
Architecture, interiors, workplace, retail and commercial environments photographed to preserve the design, and help each project make a lasting impression.

Kind Words
“I've hired Matt for multiple interior photo shoots. He consistently delivers beautiful, high-quality images and is very collaborative in achieving my vision. Highly recommend!”
“Matt is calm and unhurried on set, which matters when a shoot day is tight. He reads a space quickly, and the images came back exactly the way we hoped the project would be seen.”
“The photographs did the work for us. We used them for the award submission, the website, and the press kit, and they held up beautifully in every one.”

I’m Matt, an architectural and interior photographer with more than 15 years of experience working with architects, designers, developers, builders and brands.
My approach combines technical precision with an editorial eye and a calm, collaborative process. I take time to understand both the design and what the photographs need to accomplish, whether that means strengthening a portfolio, supporting an award submission, pursuing publication or helping a team present its work to the next client.
We begin with a conversation about the project, its story, the required images and where the finished photography will be used.
During the shoot, we work collaboratively to refine compositions, styling and details. Tethered viewing allows us to review the images as they are created.
You receive carefully retouched, high-resolution photography prepared for your portfolio, proposals, awards, publications and marketing.
Every project includes scouting, styling collaboration on the day, and licensing that actually covers how you’ll use the images. One conversation, one price, no surprises.
Let’s create photography that gives your work the attention, and lasting value, it deserves.
