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.

A Once-in-a-lifetime experience in Namibia! Goes without saying that you will acquire lots of photography skills, even though you may think you already have them. Nothing compares to having a guide who’s been there and knows where to go and when and how. I was not in my comfort zone, which is exactly what I needed to grow both professionally and personally. Well done!
There are almost no words to describe how truly amazing the Iceland Winter Wonderland was and I feel it exceeded my expectations. When I initially found Colby, I was blown away by the images of this trip including the aurora borealis, ice caves and diamond beach. The excitement at seeing the northern lights and the stars was unbelievable.
Colby was so generous with his instruction on achieving the best shot(…)
and went above and beyond to make sure I was getting the images I wanted. I also picked up quite a few new editing skills in LR and PS. The trip was well organized and we were able to see so much, including Icelandic horses, waterfalls, glaciers.I appreciated the time he took to form a group page prior to our workshop. I felt the group dynamic was great for learning and walked away with a group of new friends to share and learn from.
Thank you for giving me a once in a lifetime experience!! I hope to do it again at a new location.
Photographing wild animals? I’ve never done this before. I wondered if I signed up the wrong tour group. In fact, this is an all-in-one trip that combines scenery, wildlife, people and culture. Namibia is a unique country that is worth seeing. Not only was I fascinated by landscapes and cultures, but I also developed new interests.
The team atmosphere is great – relaxed, friendly, open minded. Colby has a(…)
good knowledge of photographic equipment and animal behavior. He took the time to patiently answer all questions and guide us to capture the best shots. He was caring, considerate and supportive along the way. Most importantly, Colby has a big heart. I’m in awe of his Giving Lens Foundation’s philosophy and mission – to educate and support local people, and to give back to the community while filming around the world.I would say the trip to Namibia was one of the best photo trips of my life. I learned so much and brought back so many unforgettable photos, great memories and friendships. Doubt helps me find new answers! This was my first time traveling with Colby, but it certainly won’t be my last!
Thank you, Colby!
