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.

Another successful workshop with Colby and Pedro. Despite having visited Iceland several times before it was well worth going on the workshop because they introduced me to some new locations, new ways of photographing them and of course the weather and light conditions are never the same. Despite some bad weather we made the most of the time and I came away with some landscape photos I am very happy with. I(…)
particularly enjoyed the ice cave which was stunning and a new experience for me and seeing the northern lights was amazing. I also really appreciated the time spent learning new techniques in Lightroom and Photoshop which I will use on the photos I took during the week. I highly recommend this workshop, Iceland is a beautiful country for landscape photography with many unique locations to discover and going there with Colby and Pedro is the best way to get the most out of it and benefit from their years of experience in this country.
I attended a Colby Brown Photography Workshop with Colby and Pedro in April, 2024 and it was an excellent learning experience in a breathtaking location, Patagonia. The weather gods cooperated that week and we enjoyed all different types of lighting conditions in great weather. Their hands-on immersive teaching approach was comprehensive and everyone deepened their understanding of landscape photography and(…)
learned some new techniques, such as time lapse photography, post-processing editing techniques for astrophotography and even some wildlife photography. Colby and Pedro have endless energy and enthusiasm and were always available to chase the light or darkness at any hour. The learning and camaraderie didn’t end at the end of the workshop but continues through an online alumni community. I can’t wait to join them again on another adventure.
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!
