creative partner
Imaginative work ally
A creative partner is someone who collaborates with you on artistic or imaginative work—a co-writer, design collaborator, or anyone who contributes ideas alongside you in a creative process.
The term implies genuine contribution rather than mere assistance: She's been my creative partner on every album since 2015.
In business contexts, it sometimes describes an advertising agency's relationship with a client.
