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
The Dolomites workshop with Pedro and Udo in October this year did not disappoint. This is my second trip with Colby Brown Photography and Pedro and the experience was every bit as good as my first in Patagonia.
The Dolomites is a landscape photographer’s dream, particularly in the autumn as the colours are changing The area is very photogenic and can be very atmospheric.
Pedro and Udo were tireless in(…)
taking us to some fantastic locations both at sunrise and sunset with plenty in between.Their organization was like a well oiled machine and both took great care to communicate the plans, look after us on the walks/hikes.
Their ability to share their photography knowledge enthusiastically was well appreciated by all, offering tips on both settings and composition.
The group make up was excellent and we all learned from each other, both in the field and in processing. This makes these workshops extra special.
The days are long but well worth it!
The only aspect they couldn’t control was the weather, but they could read it very well and they certainly made sure we had great photo opportunities none the less with some great day time trips too.
Time for processing was limited as the days were full, but plenty of photos to process when home.
Their ethos, skill and enthusiasm is what made the workshop unmissable.
Looking forward to the next one!
My experience with Colby Brown‘s Costa Rica workshop was over the top! It was very well organized. I found the support team to be very knowledgeable and helpful at all times. Everyone received personal attention to their photographic needs.
We went to a variety of locations which offered a breadth of experiences. We had comfortable accommodations with delicious meals.
The workshop exceeded my(…)
expectations. There were photographic experiences I wasn’t expecting, and I made friends with a wonderful group of people and truly had a fantastic time!One thing that I would like to have done differently, that is to have done it much sooner. I plan on exploring more of the world through these workshops!
This was my second workshop with Colby, and the adventure exceeded my expectations again!
We had an amazing journey searching for chimpanzees at Kibale Naitonal Park and enjoyed both a land and river safari where we captured incredible images of all types of Ugandan wildlife at Queen Elizabeth National Park. Of course, the highlight of the trip was our trek to find and photograph the Silverback Gorillas(…)
in the Bwindi Impenetrable National Park. The name says it all and it left an indelible mark on all of us as we followed our guide literally cutting a path through the jungle to these majestic gorillas. Wow! What a thrill of a lifetime! Seeing them in the wild is absolutely a “must do” bucket list item for all nature lovers out there!.As an alumnus of the CB photography workshops, the constant themes have been education, high energy, and fun-filled. I also met great people who have become friends for life as we share our love of photography.
Highly recommended for anyone looking for adventure and wanting to grow in their photography skills no matter the level. Well done, Colby!
