About Me
My name is Patrick Viau and I’m a photographer currently based out of Alberta, Canada. I have spent most of my life inside my comfort zone never realizing I was letting my life pass me by. Then, an amazing thing happened... photography found me and started a whole chain of events that brought me to where I am today.
As with most people, photography started out as nothing more than a hobby. I liked how it forced me to slow down in this fast-paced life and take in life's little moments. About a year later, I decided to go on my first trip overseas and that is when it became something more. Being in a new country, photographing exotic landscapes gave me such a rush. That is how photography quickly became a passion, and before I realized it, I was completely consumed by it.
When I'm not on an adventure in some new country, you will find me in the Canadian Rockies looking for my next shot.
What I hope to accomplish through my photography is to convey the emotions I experienced when living and photographing these moments. Hopefully that will inspire other people to step out of their comfort zone and discover our beautiful planet for themselves.
