Beauty Through My Lens
My name is Kristy Johnson and I am a photographer based in Minnesota. My passion for photography began when I was a child spending time with my grandfather. I now use my lens to capture the unique landscapes, natural light, and details of the seasons here in Minnesota. I specialize in portrait and real estate photography, and strive to create works that are engaging and visually striking. My skills have shaped and evolved my personal style as an author and outdoor enthusiast. Winter is one of my favorite times to take pictures – I am able to take it all in while capturing a moment in time with my camera.
In addition to photography, I also enjoy writing and teaching others about photography and outdoor exploration. I am passionate about sharing my unique perspective, experiences, and stories through photographs – the perfect balance of artistry and technical skill.
Beauty Through My Lens reflects how I see and experience the natural world. Through landscapes, wildlife, and moments of human presence, this collection captures those fleeting moments that are shaped by light, weather, and place. Spanning locations from Minnesota to distant landscapes abroad, these images share a common intention: to slow the viewer down and reveal the quiet beauty that exists everywhere, often unnoticed.
Each photograph represents a moment of presence—where observation, storytelling, and a lifelong connection to the outdoors come together in awe of God’s wonderful creation.
