Owner & Operator

Hi, my name is Mike. My amateur career started in 2005 as an assistant wedding photographer to my mentor Azell Madden. I was his second and third photographer for over 100 weddings. In 2018, I created my own brand, A773studios Photo & Video. Since then, I've worked with hundreds of people, including celebrities and companies like: Wiz Khalifa, Dometi Pongo (MTV & WGN Radio), Bobby Burns (Evanston Township 5th Ward Alderman), Michael Rabbitt (Illinois 45th Ward Committeperson) Crunchy Black (Three 6 Mafia), Illanoize, The Melanated Bar, and DePaul University. I’m grateful that a passionate hobby of mine has developed into a premier branding and event photography company.
