Selected Projects
Architectural projects aren't just the destination, they're a journey - and documenting the beginning of the project as well as the milestones along the way captures the hard work, ingenuity, and problem-solving that goes into them in a way that clients, investors, and the public can understand. When the work you do is larger than life, you need honest, elegant, and striking images to convey that, and that's what we're here to provide.
Below you'll find a sampling a few of the varied projects we've worked on, ranging from historic restorations to salvage and demolition.
Lynnewood Hall
Photographed prior to and during restoration work for the Lynnewood Hall Preservation Foundation, located in Elkins Park, Pennsylvania. After decades of neglect, Lynnewood Hall is currently being rehabilitated by the nonprofit to serve the community. Through a partnership with Lynnewood Hall Preservation Foundation, Matthew Christopher Photography led on-site photography workshops that have generated over $70,000 for the organization towards restoration efforts.
The Corning Glass Museum
Photographed for Corning Incorporated over a three year period in which the iconic Steuben Glass plant underwent controlled demolition and reconstruction in order to be added to the Corning Museum of Glass. Matthew Christopher Photography documented all phases of the process as Steuben Glass was transformed into an elegant and contemporary architectural masterpiece.
Bell Labs
The Bell Labs Holmdel Complex was photographed for Alexander Gorlin Architects during the process of transforming Eero Saarinen's modernist masterpiece from a world-class technology laboratory into its current incarnation, Bell Works. Bell works is an award-winning urban hub, "a blossoming ecosystem of technology, traditional offices, retail, dining, hospitality, and much more" - but its last days before the transition illustrate the glory of the existing architecture while celebrating the ingenious rehabilitation that saved a celebrated cornerstone of American technological history for future generations to enjoy.
Grand Tower Energy Center
Photographed for Perdomo Worldwide during demolition, remediation, and salvage operations, the Grand Tower Energy Center in Grand Tower, Illinois, is, according to a Perdomo spokesperson, "now a strategic asset on its way to powering data centers, manufacturing, and logistics — all with barge access to the Mississippi River.” Thankfully, Perdomo Worldwide saw the value of documenting the massive decommissioned power plant to highlight the epic scale of their operations to clean and prepare the site for future use.
Lansdowne Theater
Photographed for the Historic Lansdowne Theater Corporation located in Lansdowne, Pennsylvania prior to restoration work. After decades of vacancy, the Historic Lansdowne Theater Corporation celebrated the grand theater's successful restoration and reopening in 2026. Through a partnership with the Historic Lansdowne Corporation, Matthew Christopher Photography led on-site photography workshops that generated over $9,700 for the organization towards restoration efforts.
Randall Park Mall
Photographed during interior demolition for Industrial Realty Group to create a comprehensive and poignant visual record including 360 degree panoramas of the last days of Randall Park Mall. Located in North Randall, Ohio, Randall Park Mall was once the largest mall in the world until Mall of America was built.
