Life Photo Film Corporation was a film production company in the United States. It made films in 1914 and 1915. The company built a film studio and laboratory in Grantwood, New Jersey.[1][2] It adapted stage plays[3] and advertised itself as "The House of Broadway Features". Jesse J. Goldburg was general manager.[3]

The company was originally in New York City at 102 West 101st Street. The executive offices were in the Candler Building in New York City.[4]

The company reorganized at its first annual meeting and sought to recover from an eviction of its offices by order of a fire marshal as well as censor objections to its film The Ordeal. It sought to increase production and secure a release deal or adopt a states rights release program.[5]
