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.

This was my fourth workshop with Colby, and like every trip I’ve taken with him, it exceeded expectations. Seeing wild tigers up close in India was absolutely thrilling—and thanks to Colby’s guidance, I came home with some of the best images I’ve ever taken. His knowledge of wildlife behavior, lighting, and composition is outstanding, but what really sets him apart is how fun and easy he makes the whole(…)
experience. Every day was a mix of adventure, great conversation, and photography magic. If you’re serious about improving your photography while having an incredible time in the field, this is the kind of workshop you don’t want to miss. I already can’t wait for the next one!
I had the pleasure to attend this workshop in Brazil with Colby and I’m very happy to have been able to. On the first day at Porto Jofre we had 10 jaguar sightings and it only got better from there!
Our guides were very knowledgeable with the local wildlife and helped our group find a variety of rare birds as well as numerous jaguars. The food at the resorts is top notch local cuisine, very tasty and(…)
flavorful! Because both resorts are so remote, we were constantly surrounded by wildlife, whether it was the Blue Macaws right out side our rooms or the Capuchin Monkeys chasing each other in the trees. We always had so much to photograph!
Having just returned from a workshop with Colby in Uganda, I am still absorbing the impact of our extraordinary experience in Africa. Colby orchestrated an intense itinerary for our group. Along with our local guide, we were comprised five Americans and two Australians. Although we each came from different backgrounds and ages, all were incredibly supportive and helpful to one another whether we had(…)
photography questions or physical challenges. From our arrival in Entebbe to the culmination of our trip into the Bwindi Impenetrable Forest to track two gorilla families, Colby’s expertise, talent, and local knowledge offered us a unique insider’s perspective. Each day was carefully planned, and our wildlife encounters could not have been more remarkable. My only complaint is that I wish our time together did not come to an end. To compensate for this, I have already booked my next adventure with Colby in Namibia!
