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

As a frequent workshop attendee, I’ve seen the good and bad of workshops. Colby and Pedro does it right. They make sure their client’s interests come first, putting you where you need to be at the right time. Another bonus is their flexibility to help clients with special interests. Lastly, and maybe most important to me, is that they do not overpack their vehicles with too many people. After all, comfort(…)
makes a big difference when spending 7-10 days with your new best friends!
My first workshop Colby far exceeded expectations. Our first session began just a couple of hours after being picked up at the airport; and we finish the last day also taking full advantage of the opportunities, right up till the end of the workshop. The variety of wildlife and settings ensured that we walked away with a well rounded portfolio.
Colby is a generous educator that shares his deep knowledge(…)
Colby and his team set us up in the right places at the right time to walk away with the best examples of photography I’ve ever taken. More importantly, he fundamentally expanded my understanding of techniques as well as the elements that make photographs stand out, tell a story and elicit emotions.

I was fortunate enough to take a recent trip with Colby Brown to Costa Rica, and it was fantastic!
Colby manages to be spot on every day in spite of being pestered all day with my repetitive questions and comments. He somehow wrangles cats without ever losing his composure, sense of humor, or delightful temperament! Several times (likely everyday) I would find myself struggling with either the camera(…)
settings or spotting a subject and without even asking he would magically be at my side helping me out no matter what the issue. Our group of eight people quickly morphed into a very cohesive and well natured bunch mostly because of Colby’s seamless efforts and good nature.He not only found some of the best places to view and photograph wildlife in Costa Rica but also located the best local guides to help us appreciate them!
I now plan to accompany him again on other wonderful adventures throughout the world whenever I get the opportunity!
