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.

I came into this workshop having shot lots of landscape, but without much experience with macro or flash. Colby brought instruction to my level and helped me get started with this equipment. The trip was well organized, and the local guides were great. Every day, the workshop tour brought us to places with plenty of opportunities for unique wildlife photos.

With India’s thriving population of wild tigers, this workshop did not disappoint. We had multiple sightings—especially in Ranthambore National Park—photographing these magnificent cats in a variety of settings: cooling off in ponds, strolling down a path, and even interacting with cubs. Our naturalists were friendly and exceptional spotters. One unexpected surprise was seeing the armor-plated Asian(…)
rhino—very different from ones in Africa, but just as stunning. We also captured deer, monkeys, and vibrant peacocks, all set against the backdrop of Ranthambore’s incredible sunrises. For those who arrived early for the workshop, Colby arranged an optional walking tour through Old Delhi. It was a fascinating look into daily life there, with chances to try authentic Indian food. Post-workshop, a couple of us visited Agra to photograph the Taj Mahal at sunrise—absolutely worth the 4:30 AM wake-up for that perfect shot without the crowds!Another amazing adventure, Colby—can’t wait for the next one!

How to summarize this in a few words ? Amazing, challenging (a lot !), impressive, and always entertaining. Iceland in winter, even if the sun was with us during the whole trip, is an experience in itself. Colby knows how to bring this experience to a special level, how to help you to feel comfortable in rough situations (wow, this crazy icelandic wind and this stupid tripod…) and to focus yourself on what(…)
you have to do. It doesn’t matter if your feet are wet or if you have to get tired to reach a special spot in order to get a better shot. The key is to get the best from yourself, and Colby helps you to make yourself more confident. Thank you for that. Besides, he’s a totally “accessible” guy (not sure if this is the right translation of this word in english, I hope you’ll know what I mean ;-)), and it means something.
