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.

The Italian Alps is one of my favorite places in the world, especially with the larches in full display. No better way to photograph these otherworldly landscapes than with Pedro and Ugo who know the area extremely well and are experienced guides. The workshop is extremely organized and Pedro and Ugo know where to go with the variable weather and cloud coverage. Extremely happy to have joined this workshop(…)
and recommend signing up…and bringing a drone!
I very much enjoyed the week-long workshop in Brazil and I highly recommend this workshop to anyone with an interest in wildlife photography! The priority was photographing the jaguars and we got so many sightings that I lost count! We also saw and photographed other animals such as caiman, various birds and, on the first and last nights, ocelots from a specially set up hide. The format of the workshop was(…)
morning and evening boat trips cruising the river in small, maneuverable motor boats driven by experienced and very capable local guides, so almost all of the photography was done from the boats. The jaguars come to the river bank to hunt in the dry season and the area is known for its large jaguar population, which is why there is a high chance of success in photographing them. The weather was very hot and the sun is intense – as much sun protection as possible and a buff proved very useful! This workshop is ideal for anyone who is not looking for a physical challenge as we spent most of the time sitting down, it was all very relaxed. I also appreciated not having to travel with lots of gear – just a long lens. The food was buffet style in the 2 hotels we stayed at and it was delicious!I learnt a lot, as is always the case with Colby, came away with thousands of images of jaguars and loved my first trip to Brazil!

Mongolia is an absolutely amazing place, a world of endless vistas, interesting people, fascinating cultures and endless photographic opportunities. At every turn, Colby exceeded expectations. Our accommodations, transportation, meals, and especially the in-country support staff and models he hired were all superb. Taking it to a whole other level, Colby noted the particular wishes of those of us on this(…)
trip to have musical experiences, home-cooked meals and to see ancient pictographs carved in rock and he surprised us with opportunities that weren’t on the official agenda. In short, though Colby was well organized and prepared. He was flexible and responsive to the needs of the group. As a result we all had a fabulous time.So I not only recommend Mongolia, I recommend Colby wherever he may lead a tour. This is my fifth time out with him and he keeps getting better.
