Laine Torres moved from her home in Brazil to the US in 2006 and has photographed all over the world. She has a background in marketing and a mind for brand strategy. She uses these skills in a process that she developed over years of working with ambitious people to understand their goals and direction before they even start a session. 

Laine has worked with hundreds of personal brands to create gorgeous professional photos since 2011. In that time, she has seen the impact custom headshots and branding photography has made on the businesses of her clients. She is humbled to be a part of their business growth and loves seeing how their pictures have helped them achieve great things.

To Laine, it’s crucial that her clients are at ease and feel heard as well as understood in their goals, concerns, and ideals before she begins a shoot. After photographing hundreds of professionals and entrepreneurs, Laine has learned that she does her best work when her clients make her a part of their team and completely trust her to deliver their vision. Ultimately, the new images help them attract the right clients, help more people, and make more money - and she loves being a part of the process.

Laine's clients have inspired her to raise the bar for her own brand as well as to step forward as the face of her business. Over the years, she has become one of the few elite photographers in the Twin Cities area known for personal branding, lifestyle photo sessions, and custom portfolios for personality-driven businesses. Laine is a proud member of Professional Photographers of America.

Laine started her professional speaking career to help entrepreneurs step into the business and brand they were meant to have. She speaks a lot about the lessons she has learned from her downfalls and the business hacks she has developed over the years.
