Photographer Takes Picture of People He Makes Out With!

Photography has become so popular in our times. There are those who do it for fun and others for a living. Photographs are a perfect way of keeping accurate memories like wedding day, birthdays, parties and even just an ordinary day. The themes differ depending on the need and wants of each individual.

Meet Jedediah Johnson, a photographer whose concept is one of a kind. He created "The Makeout Project" which he said is all about his interaction with people and a shared experience between him and his subjects. To begin with, he puts on a red lipstick and kisses people. His subjects are his friends, friend of friend and strangers. His subjects aren't women only; he also has men, young and old! After a while he takes photos of them. He said, "I thought it would be fun to kiss a lot of people. I was kind of right." Overall the estimated number of people he kissed for this project is more than 150. He also said ""The images are an invitation to the viewer to build their own narrative of the kiss. In this project I question the nature of intimacy, sexuality, and the kiss itself." The messy markings of lipstick on his subjects are evidence of the intimate moments they had.
