Workshop Testimonials

I had a fantastic experience at Colby’s Zion Workshop. I found his advice that he shared throughout the workshop to be very insightful and helpful. Most photographers want to capture those iconic shots at our national parks such as Zion’s Watchman so I especially appreciated his emphasis on approaching things from different perspective that not only allowed us to avoid a few crowds but also gave us the opportunity to capture some of those iconic shots from a fresh vantage point. In between shooting we had some really great conversations and post processing advice that really completed the experience. I give Colby’s workshop my absolute highest recommendation.

LOVED IT! I have already booked my next workshop with Colby. He got us to all the right spots at the right times and with a fun group of people. Although I have been a serious photographer for 20+ years I learned a great deal on the trip (which surprised me). I have been on many workshops in the US, South America and Asia and this was by far the most well organized. The type of people Colby seems to attract to his workshops are just right for me -- engaged photographers but not overly technical and interesting so the beers after shooting or van rides are always entertaining. Can't wait for the next one!

Colby's Iceland workshop took me and my son, Parker, so far beyond any vacation experience. It was a chance to see parts of this planet most never get to see, in the kind of light that leaves you without words to describe. Fortunately, words aren't required to bring home a piece of it. We were all able to capture images of some of the most spectacular sights you can imagine. With Colby's expert knowledge of the country, where to find its hidden vistas, and how to really see it in its most amazing light, I was able to take my photographic skills to an entirely new level. I highly recommend this trip with Colby as your guide. It can take you to the top of the world and the peak of your craft. And you should try the lobster pizza. ?

In 2019 I joined Colby's Norway-Lofoten Islands workshop in February. Colby and his team of Pedro and Brian are highly professional, polite, humble, knowledgeable and always available and willing to help and teach. All arrangements right from airport pickup, workshop content, hotel accommodations, and time management were highly professional, even in the face of dealing with challenging weather.
I am looking forward to Colby's upcoming trip to South Georgia and many more trips with Colby. It is so good to work with you Colby!

This was my third workshop with Colby, after winter and summer Iceland workshops, and I keep coming back for a reason! Colby's way of focusing on the individuals and teaching on a personal level really helps tackling whatever I'm struggling with and helps me improve upon it during my time in the workshop. Also Colby is great at reading the weather conditions and forecast and choosing the right place and the right time to get the best photos possible!

...to learn and grow.
I had no expectations as I prepared for Colby's workshop in Myanmar. What I wanted the most from this trip was the experience of exploring an ancient culture and the opportunity for an amazing adventure, but what I walked away with was so much more.
One of the things I really appreciated the most about working with Colby is the way he pushes you beyond your boundaries in photography. Until this workshop, I spent most of my time photographing in aperture priority mode with auto-focus. This workshop encouraged me to explore and embrace my camera's manual mode. Now, I'm not new to manual mode--I spend every Milky Way season in manual mode and manual focus--but shooting the night sky in manual isn't really a challenge. However, when you're in conditions with fast-changing and dynamic lighting, you really need to think about how each setting affects your image. Colby's deep technical knowledge and his ability to teach will leave a lasting impression on you as a student... no question is too simple nor too complex.
Thank you Colby (and Erin and Koye!) for an amazing but exhausting trip in Myanmar. This was an experience I will never forget and l'm looking forward to my next adventure with Colby.
