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.

Costa Rica Wildlife Experience
Great Costa Rica Workshop!

Colby delivered yet again! The Costa Rica Wildlife workshop was extraordinary. The main focus was birds, and we photographed plenty of them at close range. I came back with images of Quetzals, Toucans, Macaws, hummingbirds, and countless other feathered friends I have never seen anywhere else. We also photographed snakes, bats, and sloths. But my personal favorite were the frogs. I learned a ton about(…)

Lofoten Islands – Norway
Great locations and learning experience

I greatly appreciated Colby’s philosophy about this photo workshop, which included providing one-on-one advice in the field and deciding where to go for photos based on up-to-the-minute forecasts of auroras and the weather (instead of a fixed daily itinerary). He chose incredible locations for our cabins and the photo outings. Also, Colby made sure that if we had late-night sessions with auroras, we had(…)

Mongolia Eagle Hunter Adventure
Magnificent Mongolia!!

This was my second time traveling with Colby, having gone to India with him in 2023. Based on how well that first trip was run and how much I learned, it was easy to commit to traveling with him again to Mongolia. As with the previous trip, it was an incredible experience. The country is beautiful but expansive, and thanks to a well thought out itinerary and a phenomenal team on the ground, our time was well(…)
