About Mark A Johnson Photography
Hi folks!I am from Hawaii and divide my time between there and Brisbane, Australia, where my wife is a Marine Biologist at the University of Queensland. I am a commercial, stock, & fine art photographer, known for my watersports and marine nature imagery, in addition to travel and lifestyle photography.
My photographs have appeared in magazines such as Outside, National Geographic Adventure, Men's Health, Bike, Surfer's Journal, Surfer and Surfing, and many others around the world.
A few of the companies that have used my stock photography in their projects have been Microsoft, General Mills, Marriot, Radio Shack, Discovery Channel, Rodale, Rip Curl, Verizon, and many more international companies. Have a look at my Published Work gallery to see some of the ways my photographs have been used.

A few customers have asked me about the differences amongst the different paper finishes when ordering prints from my web page. My photo lab uses Kodak Professional Supra Endura paper in Lustre, Matte, Glossy and Kodak Professional Metallic finishes. One of these papers is just right for you! Here is how the lab describes each paper: "All Supra Endura media deliver saturated color with exceptional, accurate flesh-tone reproduction. Lustre is one of the most popular papers and with good reason: it is a great all-around paper choice; a slight sheen and an ultra fine texture make this paper a favorite for portraits as well as fine art photographers. Matte finish has the least amount of shine of all the papers we offer, but like other Supra Endura papers, skin tones are true and details intense. Glossy finish is a true gloss paper; high shine delivers high impact images with superb flesh tones. The Endura Metallic paper has a unique metallic sheen for stunning visual impact and depth; our most dramatic paper for colors that pop right off the print!" (My own favorite finish is Metallic...the special shiny coating really saturates and enhances the colors).
