Ben Loka | Brand Design, Photography & Film

I’m Ben Loka — a designer, photographer and creative who treats portrait photography as a disciplined act of listening. Based in Brent (GB), I specialise in portrait and business headshots: studio portraits, professional LinkedIn photos and brand-aligned headshots for leaders and teams. Why choose me? My work sits at the intersection of brand thinking and human connection. Having photographed corporate clients and editorial subjects, I bring a strategic eye to every portrait: composition, lighting and expression are all considered through the lens of your personal or business story. That means each headshot is not just technically strong, but communicates who you are and what your brand stands for. My approach is intentionally calm and collaborative. Years living as a monastic taught me patience, focus and empathy — qualities I bring to every session. I start by understanding the context for your portrait: how it will be used, who you want to reach and what impression you want to leave. From there I guide posing and tone in a relaxed, conversational way so natural expressions and confident posture emerge. Whether you need a crisp corporate portrait, a relaxed creative headshot, or a LinkedIn photo that reads professional yet approachable, I tailor the shoot to the brief. In practice I combine clean studio lighting with subtle direction to create portraits that sit comfortably within your brand identity. My process is straightforward: a short briefing, comfortable on-camera direction, rapid review and selection, then professional editing to deliver polished images ready for web and print. I’ve produced portraits and staff photography for clients across sectors, bringing consistency and quality to team imagery and individual headshots. If you’re in Brent or the surrounding area and need professional headshots that reflect both your personality and your brand, I’d love to help. My aim is to make the portrait experience easy, purposeful and effective — delivering images that connect, inspire trust and work hard for your career or business.
