Hi, I'm Leeda the photographer behind Liedewien Photography.

​

Created by a performer, for performers.

 

Our language is art. It is a craft that takes years, often decades, to master and demands dedication, resilience and passion. As performers, we are expected to do so much more than perform. We become our own marketers, networkers, content creators and business managers, all while navigating an incredibly competitive industry. It is a unique world, and not everyone understands what it takes. I do.

​

Having been a performer myself, I understand the industry's requirements. I know that every performer has different goals and these mean you need to present yourself that way. Whether you are a dancer, circus artist, singer or actor. Different disciplines, auditions and opportunities call for different portfolios, so I tailor every session to reflect your craft, your strengths and the direction you want your career to take.

 

Your portfolio is often the first thing casting directors, agents and creative teams see. It is more than just a collection of photographs. It is your first impression. My aim is to create headshots and movement images that feel authentic, showcase your individuality and capture the quality you bring to the stage. With an understanding of both performance and photography, I know what to look for and when to press the shutter, capturing those split-second moments that cannot be recreated.

​

I am passionate about helping performers create portfolios that truly represent who they are and give them the confidence to put themselves forward for the opportunities they deserve.

​

While performing arts photography is my speciality, I am also available for weddings, events and dance productions. Whether it is the emotion of a wedding day, the energy of a live performance or the joy of a special celebration, I love preserving genuine moments that will be treasured for years to come.

 

Whether you are taking your first step into the industry or refreshing an established portfolio, I would love to help tell your story through honest, timeless photography.
