Meet the Team
Liesl Henrichsen
Hi! I’m Liesl, founder of Liesl NYC.
I started my career at an old time photo tourist trap in South Dakota and came to the big city to be a fashion photographer (with a few stops along the way). Though I found a love for portraits and weddings and made that my focus, I’ve kept the editorial aesthetic.
Though I’ve lived in Brooklyn for 17 years I’ve kept the South Dakota demeanor. A calm and comfortable presence helps a lot when you’re not used to being followed around by a photographer. Getting great pictures shouldn’t be intimidating. It’ll be way more fun than you think!
From the very start of my wedding career, the queer community has been at its heart. I photographed many a commitment ceremony before we got equality and with Liesl NYC, I want to keep my community at the center.
I’m vegan so I don’t offer leather albums. I do offer an amazing array of fabrics, vegan leathers, and wood covers that are way cooler anyway.
I live in Williamsburg with 45 cameras, 500 books, and one very large cat.
Alexis Devaney
Hi, I’m Alexis! A Brooklyn based photographer who was raised on the Jersey Shore, I’ve had a camera in my hand ever since I can remember. After graduating from the Hallmark Institute of Photography I worked in many different areas of the photography field, and ultimately fell in love with weddings. When I’m not hanging out at home with my two cats, you can find me cheering around the city with my adult cheerleading team!
Mónica Félix
¡Hola! My name is Mónica. I’m a born and raised Puerto Rican artist, professional photographer and yoga instructor. Based in New York City, I have a Visual Arts MFA from Columbia University and two black cats named Cleocatra and Fellini. Photography is how I look at the world, as I enjoy working with people to tell their stories in that visual language.
