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
I’m a full time working photographer who is always looking to further my skills. After chatting with Colby I decided that his Iceland photography workshop would be a great fit for me and I was right. Colby pays special attention to individual needs and will keep handing out the knowledge for as long as you keep asking for it. I would recommend a Colby Brown workshop for anyone from a pure beginner photographer to a working professional.
Seeing hundreds of bald eagles in Alaska was an incredible experience, and something I’d never forget.
The workshop was so well organized. Colby provided detailed instructions right from booking the workshop, helped us bring the right gear – both camera gear and winter gear. From the minute we met him, he made himself available to all of us – whether it’s editing or shooting tips, or driving us around(…)
anywhere we need to. Colby is also very fun to hang out with, and he constantly drops tips and tricks.If you join any of his workshops, I highly recommend asking questions and being proactive in getting what you want from the workshop.
In our bald eagle workshop, his other attendees were also great people. Some of them have a ton of wildlife experience, so I learned a bunch from them as well.
My first workshop Colby far exceeded expectations. Our first session began just a couple of hours after being picked up at the airport; and we finish the last day also taking full advantage of the opportunities, right up till the end of the workshop. The variety of wildlife and settings ensured that we walked away with a well rounded portfolio.
Colby is a generous educator that shares his deep knowledge(…)
Colby and his team set us up in the right places at the right time to walk away with the best examples of photography I’ve ever taken. More importantly, he fundamentally expanded my understanding of techniques as well as the elements that make photographs stand out, tell a story and elicit emotions.
