I am J "Slim" Robertson creative director, photographer, and the brains behind The Slim Creative. I started shooting as just another stream of income on top of my graphic design business in March of 2018. In the beginning, I was shooting literately anything I could and just for the side income. No styling, no directing, no purpose, just pointing and shooting. After a while, I started to feel like things were becoming routine and I was tired of just shooting. So I got back to my artistic roots and began to create stories and pieces of art that people could enjoy and love. I started to collaborate with other artists and creatives and do what I truly enjoyed. I became a creative director and not just another photographer. I style, direct, teach, pick makeup, hair, and so much more. Lately, I feel that I have found my purpose in this creative lane and that is to show my black Queens & Kings in a truly beautiful authentic light, and share my knowledge and opportunities with other creatives. No filter, no body modifications, just blackness in all its melanin glory. I genuinely believe we don’t have enough representation in the media in a natural way and I’m doing my part to change that one frame at a time.
