“Over the years, I shot Joni 13 times. She was always astounding. One minute, she is lying on the street using chalk to draw the outline of her body, the next moment I'm in her studio looking at her emotionally evocative paintings. After that, she's playing piano and introducing me to some new work. Later, we ended up shooting her in her swimming pool. Joni always came up with ideas and we would joust a bit until we agreed on what we wanted to do. Some were straight-up photo sessions but once she drove up with a bunch of wolves and we had to set up an electrified fence.”
