Kiss it! is the result of a long-term collaboration between photographer Abbie Trayler-Smith and Shannon, a young woman living with obesity. Over the course of 12-years, Trayler-Smith documented Shannon's journey from teenager to adult--navigating friendships, family, first boyfriends, prom nights, holidays and jobs.

Shannon has been the central inspiration for Trayler-Smith's long-term project, 'The Big O' examining the issue of obesity in school-age children and young adults. 'At age eleven, I felt judged, criticised, and not approved of...others saw only my imperfect body, not the fact that I was funny and clever and warm. I came to believe that if I wasn't fat, somehow everything else in my life would be problem-free. As I stepped into adolescence, all of this became my identity. Fast forward to the age of thirty-three. I was working as a photographer at a press conference for a launch of health services to teenagers and there she was--Shannon, with a voice I had never found, reading a poem addressed to the professionals, pleading to be understood and not judged. I saw the mutuality between us and the difference. She was the brave teenager I had never been able to be.' -Abbie Trayler-Smith

Abbie Trayler-Smith was born in Wales and is a self-taught photographer. She has worked for The Telegraph covering world events including the Darfur conflict, the Iraq War and the Asian tsunami. She joined Panos pictures in 2008 and now works for a variety of publications and clients including The Sunday Times, Marie-Claire, IRC, BBC worldwide among others. A portrait from her long-term project 'The Big O' won a Taylor Wessing Portrait Prize in 2010.
