Jen Miles Photography

Jen Miles brings a distinct portrait practice to Derby, combining her commercial photography experience and fine-art sensibility to create professional, characterful portraits. As a portrait specialist, Jen focuses on headshots and business portraits that convey confidence, approachability and the personality behind the profile. Her work is aimed at professionals and organisations who want images that stand out — whether for LinkedIn, company websites or press profiles. What sets Jen apart is the way she applies a commercial photographer's discipline to portrait work. She understands how a single image contributes to brand perception, so she composes, lights and directs with clarity of purpose while keeping the session relaxed and natural. Influenced by her coastal fine-art practice, Jen favours thoughtful composition, subtle tones and an eye for detail that elevates a standard headshot into a memorable portrait. Clients value Jen's calm, collaborative approach. Sessions are designed to put people at ease: clear pre-shoot guidance, gentle direction during the shoot and a focus on capturing authentic expressions rather than stiff poses. This makes her especially effective with clients who are nervous in front of the camera or who need efficient, professional results for business use. While portraiture is the focus here, Jen’s background in commercial photography ensures images are created with practical use in mind — optimised for corporate profiles, marketing materials and online presentation. The outcome is professional headshots and portraits that look great at any size and feel true to the person photographed. Based in Derby, Jen works with local professionals and small businesses across the UK who want portraits with both presence and personality. If you’re looking for a portrait studio experience that combines commercial precision with an artistic touch, Jen Miles offers a considered, personal service that helps you present your best self visually.
