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.

I enjoyed every moment of the eagle workshop in Alaska with Colby. We saw more bald eagles than I could count every day and had plenty of opportunities for taking good photos close into the action. The surroundings were stunningly beautiful with snowy peaks visible in every direction. It was a fantastic opportunity to improve my wildlife photography skills. I also learned a lot from our evenings spent(…)
editing photos and Colby was very patient with his explanations, answering all my questions about using lightroom and photoshop.Visiting the wildlife preserve during the week was a unique experience and a highlight, we were able to photograph a lynx, a wolverine, a red fox, and a snowy owl up close.
I highly recommend this workshop to anyone who likes wildlife!
The sounds, the colors and the tastes of India and an opportunity to participate in a photography workshop focused on Bengal Tigers! What’s not to like? I couldn’t wait for my opportunity to set my lenses on the eye of a tiger.
When Colby posted his plans for workshop in India, I was eager to sign up! This was my 4th workshop adventure with Colby, so I already knew that he will have thoroughly researched(…)
the best places to go with the highest probability of tiger sightings! I also know that even in the most challenging locations, he has seen to all the logistics that make the trip run smoothly. A terrific network of contacts who have local knowledge makes navigating throughout the trip seem simple. We traveled to Tadoba and Bandavgarh National Parks located south of New Delhi. Our safaris were very productive. Colby is a great person to travel with and an outstanding coach. No matter where you are on the photography continuum, Colby has insights on techniques, technology, and software that make you a better photographer. On each trip, I come away looking forward to applying newfound skills and to the next adventure!
