Art Streiber on photographing Rashida Jones for Wired’s “All Work & All Play” issue

For its July issue, which looks at working from every imaginable angle, Wired asked Art Streiber to photograph actress and author Rashida Jones. “I honestly don’t know where to start with describing how wonderful this shoot was,” says Art. “It was in San Francisco, it was for Wired magazine, and it was with Rashida Jones…an editorial hat trick!”

“The folks at Wired are talented, thoughtful, creative, and amazing to work with,” Art continues. “Senior Photo Editor Anna Goldwater and Director of Photography Patrick Witty produced the shoot in Wired’s photo studio at their newly redesigned, super-sleek offices.

“Deputy Creative Director David Moretti and Executive Creative Director Billy Sorrentino collaborated with me throughout the creative process as we attempted to illustrate the new, overlapping world order of WORK and PLAY.

“And Editor in Chief Scott Dadich was succinctly visionary when it came to the final design of the cover. He was also a great sport on camera as well, while Rashida put him in a headlock and gave him a ‘noogie.’

“Rashida Jones? Smart, funny, talented, patient, and willing to try whatever crazy suggestions we threw her way.”
