About Angie Patterson
As a seven-year-old, I received a Snappy camera from my grandma, and now I’m a professional photographer, educator, and author of Making Photography Easy and Fun. I love exploring with my camera and sharing my adventures to help aspiring photographers learn from my knowledge, successes, and frustrations.
Through my courses and workshops, I have taught hundreds of students how to use their cameras and take images they are proud of.
I live in northern Alberta, Canada, and I love spending time on my tractor, taking care of the land on my acreage, and creating habitat for pollinators.
