Stephanie Diani's Fur Shot

Jul 01, 2015

David Bailey did it with Mick Jagger. Paul Simon did it on his second solo album. Sandro Miller did it with John Malkovich. And Stephanie Diani did it with chef Wylie Dufresne.

The fur hood shot.

"I’d like to claim credit for the idea, but that goes to director of photography extraordinaire Allyson Torrisi at Popular Mechanics," says Diani. "As a backup I shot a few environmental portraits at Alder, Dufresne’s restaurant in the East Village, to illustrate his column in defense of frozen food. Wylie was an excellent sport, at one point even spitting crushed ice at me."

Wait, maybe that was just him spitting crushed ice.
