Johnston was an engineer whose hobby was photography. Born in Parry Sound, Ontario in 1896, he studied at Queen's University and served in Canadian Army Medical Corps (1917-1919), photographing architectural details and parks of London and coast of Cornwall. He entered the competitive world of international salon photography about 1929. Johnston's salon experience fitted him to become one of the key organizers of these functions in Canada. As a member of the executive of the Camera Club of Ottawa, Ont., he worked to establish the annual Canadian International Salons of Photographic Art, first held in 1934. Johnston was elected a Fellow of the Royal Photographic Society in 1936.
