Carl Leisegang

A rough timeline of events:

Establised 1984: Visual Art

As long as I can remember, art has been a passion of mine.

ESTABLISHED 2006: GRAPHIC DESIGN

I started studying graphic design-related courses online whilst working full time.

ESTABLISED: 2006: PHOTOGRAPHY

Co-founded a photography partnership with a friend, focussing primarily on the wedding industry in the beautiful KwaZulu-Natal South Coast, South Africa.

ESTABLISHED 2015: HADEDA CREATIVE

Just prior to the birth of my first-born daughter, I created Hadeda Creative with the help of a previous boss, current friend and business mentor. The aim for the company: To be able to offer multiple services to more than a single client, while freeing myself to be able to work on a flexible schedule enabling me to live life with a young family to the fullest.

Carl Leisegang: graphic designer. photographer. artist... to name a few.

Some people may think of the term, “Jack-of-all Trades, Master of None”, but this is the furthest from the truth. Before I could talk properly, I had mastered how to hold a crayon. This has steamrolled into what I have become today.

I have a love for many creative spheres, originating in Visual Art. My first job was as a Teacher’s Assistant in a high school’s Art Department, where I was able to further my artistic skills past a purely educative level. Graphic design was a natural step from here, with the progress in digital art; it was an area I was instinctively drawn to.

It was also during this time in my 20’s that I co-founded a photography business, where we mainly focussed on the wedding industry.

At the end of 2012 I moved to Canada and have been here ever since. Hadeda Creative was established in April 2015, with the sole purpose of me being able to fulfil my desire to be able to offer my range of skills to small businesses and entrepreneurs.

A bit more about me...

I am a the younger and better-looking version of a set of twins. Sven, my over-competitive side-kick beat me by 12 minutes.  Now while I might have the looks, Sven claims to have the brains. He is a qualified Architect, and will use that in every introduction that he makes: “Sven Leisegang, Architect.”

I have a lovely wife, Heather,  who is a highly skilled RN. She is amazing, in every sense of the word. I need say no more, because badly composed love poems are not appropriate on this platform…

I am the father of two amazing daughters, who will keep me busy and greying until the end of my days, or so I hope.
