JWST primarily looks at very large objects that are far away. Titan (and really everything in the solar system) is relatively close to us, but are tiny in comparison to galaxies/nebulae, so their actual size as they appear in the sky is a lot smaller.
Also of note, most objects in the outer solar system are very dim.
Can't really claim we're all that bright in the inner solar system either.
