Mark Kuhn
I’m a professional travel photographer with a passion for capturing the world’s beauty—from quiet details to bold colors and striking landscapes. My work has taken me to 37 countries (and counting), where I chase stories through my lens alongside my wife and travel partner, Kris. I regularly exhibit my photography at juried art shows, where I’ve received multiple Best in Show honors. My work has also been recognized in international photography competitions.
The world is too big to stay in one place & life is too short to do just one thing.
