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

Late in October 2023, I received a call from my friend, Warren Treacher, asking me if I would like to accompany him to Costa Rica in January 2024. After much thought (for an hour or so) I signed up for the Colby Brown Costa Rica Photography Workshop. To say I am pleased with this company is an understatement! All the people involved were experts in their field: from the chauffeur to the guides to Colby(…)
himself, all were in top form. We visited four different locales, each providing unique photographic experiences. Every day, Colby seemed to pull magic out of his sleeve, which only increased daily! He is an expert photographer who is very knowledgeable in all camera formats. He never tired of having to answer the same questions every day. His calm demeanor was refreshing to experience.Colby was clear before we went out on our experiences about what camera lenses we should use and what items we would need to bring to make that experience comfortable. The chauffeur, Wilson, was an unbelievable driver. He was always cautious, never got lost and at times would fill us in on the history of his country. The chief guide, Ken, was an expert birder and photographer who would help us with bird identification and our photography. A bonus was the group we went with. All the people who participated in the workshop were fun-loving and experienced photographers which added to the experience. I cannot recommend Colby Brown’s workshop highly enough to anyone interested in world travel and nature photography!

Colby’s workshop gave us the chance to photograph the Big Five—and so much more. We stayed in both Amboseli and the Maasai Mara, each offering stunning landscapes, incredible game drives, and unforgettable sunsets. On our very first drive in the Mara, we witnessed the migration—a stunning moment! BellaCamp was our base: safe, comfortable, amazing food and warm with attentive staff. Falling asleep to the(…)
sounds of wildlife, and knowing the Maasai people were keeping watch, made it feel both peaceful and magical. As a fan of photographing cubs, I was thrilled to capture young leopards, lions, hippos, rhinos, cheetahs, and hyenas. Also several elephant calves. Colby and Simon (our expert guide) always positioned us perfectly for the best shots. Each day in the field outdid the last, and visiting a local Maasai village was also a powerful cultural highlight.Thank you, Colby, for another unforgettable adventure!

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.
