​KOBUS & NERINE

I am Vivien Leigh Webber-Malan. A wife, mother, creator, dreamer and self-taught photographer. Currently residing in Muldersdrift, I work mostly around Johannesburg, Gauteng.
 
With a focus on wedding photography, my portfolio also includes editorial, portrait, and lifestyle photography. Moved by my love for new adventures and original ideas, I eagerly make the journey to wherever opportunity leads.
 
With ten years overall learning experience, and four years professional experience, my passion for the art of photography shapes everything I do. Through persistence and practice, I am constantly developing my skills and staying true to my ethic – “My best photos are the ones I take tomorrow”
 
My willingness and ability to adapt to each of my clients’ needs, lets them rest assured – each feeling and detail of their dream day will be captured perfectly, telling their story for generations to come.

NERINE & KOBUS

 
“Words cannot begin to express our gratitude. From the first time we met Leigh, her focus was on us and our special day. Allowing us to be spontaneous in front of her lens, she always made us feel relaxed and told our story like no one else ever could. She didn’t miss one moment and captured the emotion of our day perfectly. Not only is she extremely talented, but her passion for people and for what what she does is evident. We are so grateful to have found you, you are very special to us. Thank you for making the most special day of our lives last a lifetime!”

INGE & CHARLES

 
“We didn’t exactly have the most traditional wedding day. We wanted to do things in a way that felt natural to us and Leigh was so flexible in accommodating our needs for the day. She truly went out of her way to make sure every moment was captured in the most beautiful an artistic way. Her attention to detail and tireless enthusiasm gifted us with a priceless wedding album.”

Captured moments live past your wedding day, beyond the champagne toasts and beautiful bouquets. Following the celebration, you’re left with the one you’ll spend loving forever, and the images from the day you made that promise.

BELOVED

 
This technique blends the visual beauty of wedding photography with the reality of photojournalism.
It creates an opportunity to invite unpretentious, enjoyable experiences for both the bridal couple and their guests while capturing stunning, authentic images.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
 

WHO WILL BE TAKING MY PHOTOS?

I am the lead photographer for all bookings. A selection of my wedding packages include a second photographer, which I would recommend to clients who are planning on having a large wedding with a busy on-the-day program.

 

 

HOW WILL I KNOW HOW TO POSE?

I will guide you through our shoot together, but I aim for more spontaneous and authentic shots through the beloved photography technique.

 

 

WHAT ADVICE DO YOU HAVE ON WARDROBE CHOICES FOR LIFESTYLE OR ENGAGEMENT SHOOTS?

You’ll notice in my work that I generally prefer neutral and muted clothing, and would advise you to steer clear of busy patterns, visibly branded clothing, etc. This enables me to keep the focus on you and your experience, while also delivering images that are true to my photography style.

 

 

ARE YOU AVAILABLE FOR COLLABORATIONS?

Absolutely! One of my favorite things about photography is meeting fellow members in the creative industry and working together. I have done quite a few styled shoots with extremely talented creative entrepreneurs, and I’d love to collaborate on even more projects!

 

 

DO YOU EDIT YOUR IMAGES?

In staying true to my style, I take great care in the editing and enhancing of images. My clients receive their photographs in a selection of color, as well as black & white options. Unfortunately, no unedited or raw images will be given to a client.

 

 

DO YOU OFFER ALBUMS?

Yes, I offer beautiful flat lay linen albums, as well as smaller options for family members. Please confirm which of my wedding packages include wedding albums. If the wedding package you’ve selected to fit your budget does not include albums, I can always assist you with ordering albums at a later stage.

 

 

WHAT TIME OF DAY IS BEST FOR PHOTOS?

Sunrise and sunset is definitely the best time for having your pictures taken. I generally prefer to use the last 60 minutes before sunset for shoots.

 

 

DO YOU TRAVEL FOR WEDDINGS?

I am based in Muldersdrift and I travel for weddings around the country and internationally. My packages include a 100km round trip from Muldersdrift. Flights, accommodation and car hire required for destination weddings.

 

 

DO WE NEED TO MEET YOU BEFORE OUR WEDDING?

On your wedding day, I want you to be as relaxed and comfortable as possible. I therefore recommend that we get to know each other a little better before the big day. The best way is through booking an engagement shoot, but if distance is a constraint there’s always Skype.

 

 

HOW CAN WE BOOK YOU?

I work on the basis of a 50% booking fee and signed contract. Unfortunately, I’m not able to hold a date for your wedding on a temporary basis. So get in touch, and we can start planning!
