I love helping people capture their hard work and tell their stories with great photographs.

Chicago architectural photographer

My name is Matt Mansueto and I am an interior and architectural photographer based in Chicago, Illinois. I specialize in residential and commercial interiors.

I collaborate with architects, interior designers, and developers to create compelling images that showcase their designs, attract clients, and elevate their brand presence.

Architectural Excellence: Beauty, Function, and Fun!

My photography not only captures the aesthetic appeal of architectural designs but also emphasizes their functionality, providing a comprehensive visual narrative that resonates with both designers and clients.

When I’m not behind the lens, you’ll often find me exploring Chicago’s diverse neighborhoods—always on the hunt for the best dumpling, taco, or slice of pizza. Thanks to my flight attendant wife, I’m also an avid traveler, and our three kids have joined us on some unforgettable adventures. Here we are in Scranton, PA, checking out Alfredo’s Pizza Café (certainly not Pizza by Alfredo). That trip came after photographing a stunning Airbnb in the Pocono Mountains—plus a few detours to visit sites from The Office.

Beyond photography, I believe in using my skills to give back. I volunteer as the Finance Director for the Illinois chapter of ASID (American Society of Interior Designers), supporting the interior design community through leadership and advocacy. I also work with organizations like Designs 4 Dignity, which transforms spaces for nonprofits in need, and Chicago Gateway Green, which works to make the city greener and more beautiful.

I’m a proud member of the American Society of Media Photographers (ASMP) and an Allied Industry Professional with the Chicago chapter of the American Institute of Architects (AIA), collaborating with architects and designers to stay engaged in the architecture and design community.

I’m always looking to collaborate with people who share a passion for design, storytelling, and community. If you’re interested in working together, let’s connect—I’d love to help bring your vision to life through compelling architectural photography.

Authentic Photography for All Spaces & Stories

I believe great design tells a story, and every business deserves photography that reflects its vision and impact. I’m committed to working with diverse businesses, including BIPOC- and LGBTQ+-owned firms, to create images that celebrate their unique perspectives. Whether you’re an architect, interior designer, construction firm, or small business, I’m here to bring your projects to life with authenticity and professionalism.

Let’s collaborate to capture the spaces, projects, and moments that matter most to you.
