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.

It was my first workshop with Colby and can’t wait till next one!
From first day Colby and Kenneth had everything in place so that I could find the right spots with the right animals to get the photos I was expecting. Actually, my workshop photos surpassed by far all my expectancies!
We were able to see the wonderful quetzal, owls, many other birds, frogs, bats, snakes etc. Everything with great light(…)
and, more important, with an exceptional teacher to show us how to get the best photos.Colby taught me how to use flashes for macro photography and for freezing high speed movement. The results were amazing, even though I’d never tried it before.
The logistics were also a highlight. From the hotels, to the local guides, to the food, everything worked amazingly well!
Looking forward to my next workshop with Colby and team!

Chasing the light! Staying up all night to see the sunset and sunrise pretty much at the same time was one of the most amazing things of my life. I got a taste for adventure traveling around Iceland with Colby and can’t get enough now. If you are going to go anywhere in the world, you must go to Iceland. It is a land like no other that will capture your heart as you capture the beautiful landscapes!

I signed up this workshop in March 2020. While I got everything ready, the entire trip was postponed due to the Pandemic. Finally, Colby notified us that the workshop would be held in March 2022. After waiting for 2 years, I couldn’t wait any longer! Ironically, on the way to Punta Arenas, my flight was delayed multiple times, which messed up all my connecting flights and pre-booked accommodations. After(…)
being sleepless for two nights, I finally met Pedro who picked me up at the airport. That was where my Patagonia journey began with Colby, Pedro, Rodrigo and my fellow workshop members. Our time together was full of learning, practice, challenges, tips and laughs thoughout the entire workshop. I learned so much not only from Colby and Pedro, but also from our local guide Rodrigo and my fellow members! Certainly, it was a truly exciting, productive, unforgettable, and wild workshop that will be in my memory forever!
