ABOUT IAN
Documenting Your Story - Wedding Photographer Nottinghamshire & Derbyshire | Ian Petrie Photography
Hi, I’m Ian.
Tea drinker, Nikon obsessive and the person who’ll probably end up chatting to your nan, helping somebody with a buttonhole and joining you on the dance floor later.
I photograph weddings naturally and without taking over your day. I’ll step in when you need me, disappear into the background when you don’t, and make sure you get beautiful photographs without spending hours posing for them.

Live Wedding Photo Reveal
Why wait weeks to see the first photographs from your wedding?
With my Live Wedding Photo Reveal, I create a special gallery during your wedding reception. You and your guests can simply scan a QR code to see a curated selection of photographs from the day while you're still celebrating.
Scan the QR code • View selected photographs • Share the excitement
It's a brilliant talking point for your guests and gives everyone the chance to relive moments they may have missed — before the party is even over.
Included with the Heirloom Collection and available as an upgrade with other collections.

“From the moment we booked Ian, we knew he would fit right in — and he did not disappoint.
He was extremely professional, helpful throughout the day, and captured amazing photos that brought all the memories flooding back.
Our guests had nothing but wonderful things to say about him, and many said they barely even noticed he was there..”

Ian made us feel completely relaxed from start to finish.
Looking through our gallery felt like reliving the day all over again.
The photographs are beyond anything we could have imagined.

"Ian is fantastic and professional, always listening to exactly what his clients want.
Having used his services for over 10 years—from nursery and school photos to my daughter's 18th and our wedding day—I can say he is incredibly talented.
I choose him every time, 100%."

Ian is an amazing photographer. From the first time we met him, we knew we wanted him to photograph our wedding.
He is friendly, kind, down-to-earth, and easy-going. I would recommend Ian with no question asked.
