Julietta Arden-Taylor Photography

Julietta Arden‑Taylor is a portrait specialist based in a characterful studio barn at Glendon Farm Lodge, Kettering. Her approach blends gentle direction with a documentary eye so each portrait feels natural, flattering and true to you. Whether you need a professional headshot for LinkedIn, a personal brand portrait for your website or a timeless studio portrait to display at home, Julietta focuses on capturing personality and presence in every frame. Why choose Julietta? Her background in storytelling—trained from film and darkroom roots and refined through years of studio work—means she sees portraits as a visual legacy. She aims to create images that stand the test of time: clean, emotive and designed to look beautiful as wall art or online profiles. Clients often comment on the calm, welcoming atmosphere in the barn studio and how quickly Julietta puts people at ease, even those who say they dislike having their photo taken. What makes the process special is the care Julietta takes before and during the session. A personal consultation explores how you want to be seen—classic and refined, warm and approachable, or confidently corporate—and we plan outfits, backdrops and poses to match. Sessions are relaxed and guided rather than stiff: Julietta uses simple prompts, natural conversation and subtle styling to draw out authentic expressions. For business portraits and headshots she balances professional polish with personality so your images work hard on websites, social media and marketing materials. The studio offers a selection of tasteful backdrops, maternity gowns and props to suit personal and family portraits, and Julietta can also shoot outdoors for a softer, lifestyle feel. Images are carefully edited to enhance your best features while keeping a natural look. Beyond digital files, Julietta helps clients consider presentation — framed portraits and printed pieces that become family heirlooms or professional assets. If you’re in Kettering or nearby and want a portrait that truly represents you or your brand, Julietta provides a thoughtful, professional experience from the first conversation to the finished photograph. Her goal is simple: to create portraits you’ll be proud to share and delight in for years to come.
