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

I went on the Costa Rica trip….January 2025. It was a great trip with a lot of interesting people. Colby and the people he hired were helpful at all times. One of our stops we couldn’t get to because of the rains……but, the stop they found in place of it was wonderful. When Colby says bring toiletries……assume they have nothing in the hotels. Definitely bring a raincoat. I didn’t need a second pair(…)
of shoes. The camera you are comfortable with is fine……but, get the flash and wireless commander that Colby recommends (my commander didn’t work……I was lucky that I could borrow one from someone else. All in all it was a great trip and I really enjoyed learning about shooting macro!
I’ve been with Colby on a few workshops and I’ve never regretted a single one. Just got back from shooting bald eagles in Alaska and I can’t recommend it enough! Colby is great because he is always whatever you need him to be. Need someone to walk you through everything? He’s there. Need editing tips? He’s always willing to share. Need someone to get you to the location and then leave you alone? He’s got you covered!

There are many outfits offering photographic trips to Costa Rica. I am quite sure many of them are excellent. I honestly believe that word of mouth is the best way to sift through the options. Colby was highly recommended by a good friend who is an excellent photographer. I went with my wife, and we both have difficulty walking, and I am partially disabled. The driver of the bus (Wilson) and Kenneth(…)
(Colby’s assistant) helped us every step of the way with great compassion. This made our experience even more memorable. On a trip like this, local knowledge is essential, which was available in abundance. Colby is a special person. His photographic knowledge is impeccable, and all of us on the trip learned a great deal. He is a wonderful individual, and this was felt by everyone on the trip. Accommodation and meals more than adequate at all venues. Every effort was made to accommodate our needs, and I would recommend Colby unconditionally!
