About Me
I've been making things since I picked up my first camera in middle school. What started as a passion for video grew into something I couldn't put down. Over the past 18 years, that curiosity has taken me into design, motion graphics, animation, photography, branding, podcast production, and web. I'm based in the Greater Cincinnati area and I work with brands, organizations, and individuals who have something worth saying and want help saying it well.
I launched Justin Tyler Creative in 2016, but honestly I've been doing this work since 2008. The business just made it official.
What I Do
Video Production
Corporate and commercial video, brand storytelling, event coverage, motion graphics, and animation. I handle everything from concept and scripting through production and final edit. If it moves, I can make it.
Photography
Commercial and editorial photography for businesses, events, nonprofits, and individuals. I also shoot drone and 360° photo and video for clients who need a different perspective — literally.
Design & Branding
Graphic design, brand identity, digital and print campaigns, social content, and creative direction. Whether you need a logo, a full brand system, or just a set of ads that don't look like everyone else's, I've got you.
The Fuller Picture
Outside of JTC, I've spent my career working in-house at companies and universities across Ohio, leading creative and content strategy for organizations ranging from EdTech startups to regional campuses to retail technology brands. That experience shapes how I work with clients. I understand budgets, timelines, stakeholders, and what it actually takes to get creative work approved and out the door. I bring that same level of intentionality to every project I take on independently.

What It’s Like To Work With Me
I show up prepared, communicate clearly, and don't disappear after the brief. I ask a lot of questions upfront because I'd rather understand what you actually need than deliver something polished that misses the point. I'm flexible on process. Some clients want to be closely involved, others just want to hand it off and trust it'll be good. I'm comfortable either way.
I care about the work. Not in a precious, difficult-to-work-with way, but in a "let's make sure this is actually good before we call it done" kind of way.
