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.

Colby does not disappoint! Spending the better part of a month in India photographing tigers is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, and I will carry it with me for the rest of my life. When most people think of wildlife photography, they typically think of Africa, but India is rich with incredibly diverse wildlife. The trip’s main goal was tigers, but even the days without a tiger sighting were incredible.(…)
From elephants to leopards to a plethora of vibrant species of birds, not a single day disappointed. The parks of India are divine, and the access and knowledge that Colby provides are invaluable. Everything, from the accommodations to the guides, was perfect. I cannot recommend this enough, go to India! Truly treat yourself with a trip you will never forget.
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!

While we were unlucky this season and did not see the impressive migration across the Mara River, we did have a lot of awesome sightings and photo opportunities – a Cheetah mum and her four cubs; baby hyenas; an eagle close-up; the first outing of lion cubs; watching the next generation of lions being made; and so much more. Be prepared to sit for hours in the safari vehicle to traverse Kenya’s Parks. Colby(…)
was prepared to help with techniques, just ask, he helped me with High-Key Exposure. And if you see something you want to photograph, just ask, that is how we got the close-ups on the eagle and feeding lions!
