Abbas Tayebali is a multi-hyphenate creative. A photographer, producer, and comedian based in Chicago. He prioritizes high quality storytelling.

Hello there! I'm a photographer with a passion for capturing compelling, interesting portraits, and making people laugh.

My approach to photography is rooted in the belief that vulnerability and joy bring the best angle out of anyone. I truly believe everyone should have a photo they’re proud to see them themselves in and remembered by. I have gained invaluable insights in my own journey as an artist. I have accomplished notable milestones, including contributing to Emmy-nominated projects, venturing across 14 diverse countries, and assisting in the production of WeatherTech’s 2018 Super Bowl Commercial. These rich experiences were foundational for my creative storytelling and art of capturing breathtaking images.

Currently based in the vibrant Chicagoland area, I find immense joy embarking on solo adventures overseas or finding the next hidden gem within one of Chicago’s bustling neighborhoods. When weather allows, you'll often find me biking while I listen to 70’s disco music.
