Welcome to
Colby Brown Photography
I became a photographer back in 2006, rapidly rising in the ranks of the photo industry. I created my company, Colby Brown Photography, to offer my services to the public and corporations. I spent countless hours studying the latest photography techniques, exploring camera technology and photo editing. This learning curve opened my eyes to the world of photography education by exploring the world and using these techniques in the field.
I was leading photography workshops for National Geographic in South America, further spurring my love for both travel and photo education. Over the years, I have developed photography workshops that take you to wondrous locations around the globe while teaching the different disciplines of photography. Each workshop is carefully planned to offer the best scenic locations to create memorable adventure while allowing me to share my knowledge and experience.
Today, I am a professional photographer, photo educator and author living in Eastern Pennsylvania with my family. The meticulously researched photography workshops I created, specialize in landscape, travel and wildlife photography, I am fortunate to work all over the globe, across all 7 continents, documenting various cultures, environments and species in pursuit of capturing life on this planet. Following my heart and my passions, I dedicate a lot of my time to working with small NGOs, charities and initiative programs while on the road. If you have been looking for a way to give back, check out my NGO, The Giving Lens. If you have any questions, please feel free to reach out and contact me. Thanks for stopping by! Enjoy!
Each year I run photography workshop adventures around the globe in some of the most incredible locations on the planet such as Patagonia, Iceland, Norway, Cuba, Africa and much more…
Throughout my career I have created a number of tutorials, video courses & e-books that cover everything from social media and business to post-processing (Adobe, Capture One & On1 Photo RAW). You can find these in the Photography Education section of this website.

Client Testimonials

Colby and Pedro are excellent photo tour and professionals. This is my second workshop with them; my first was Patagonia. As the title suggests, they know where and when to go, and why. Once at a locale, they actively engage with each member of the tour. They are always willing to help – technically or logistically. Iceland in the winter can be a bit of a challenge, and both made the tour enjoyable,(…)
rewarding and safe.Beyond all of this, both are kind, compassionate people. Both set a tone of camaraderie among the participants. I quickly felt I was on tour with good friends.
Highly recommend!!!

I am definitely not someone who would normally ever consider joining an organized group to go travel. With that said, my experience traveling with Colby and Erin blew my mind and so far exceeded my expectations that I cannot wait to sign up for a next workshop! As someone who is still relatively new to photography, not only did I learn so much, I was pushed outside of my comfort zone in terms of what I(…)
normally would capture, and left the trip feeling so much more confident as a photographer! Additionally, everyone in the group were so fantastic and fun, definitely people I plan to keep in touch with! If you’re hesitant about joining one of his trips, just do it! You absolutely won’t regret it!
From the unspoiled expanse of the Gobi, with nomadic herders of Bactrian Camels and the darkest night sky with the brightest stars and Milky Way I’ve ever seen, this has been my most memorable photo trip ever. It checked every possible box for me; Colby never disappointed and had arranged new and different photo opportunities every day with Camels, Yaks, Horses, Eagle hunters, and Nomadic herders and(…)
spectacular panoramas. We were also treated to some local Kazakh music and some ethnic meals that were “to die for”! I can’t imagine this trip being any better, and I want to return. All the logistical (internal vehicle and air travel, accommodation, meals, etc.) details were handled without a hitch by the ground team and local guide/fixer who accompanied us throughout the trip, so we could just unplug and enjoy the experience. Colby always made sure we got all the shots we were after at each location and lent his photo expertise throughout. I got photos I’ve dreamed of for years, and I’m so happy I did this trip!
