The Makeout Project' by photographer and kisser extraordinaire Jedediah Johnson

Who isn't a fan of kissing? But how would you react if a stranger kissed you and then suddenly took your photo? That's the concept behind the fascinating series 'The Makeout Project' by photographer and kisser extraordinaire Jedediah Johnson.

He passionately makes out with his subjects (deliberately smearing luminous red lipstick across their face in the proccess) before shooting their portrait.

The kisses vary in length and intimacy. My subjects are all aware of what I’m going to do, but in the moment of the kiss anything can happen....

The act of kissing in Western culture is often considered an intimate act, yet in other cultures it has an entirely different association attached to it.
