Jack Dorsey wants to Square Up & I want to Catch Up

December 14, 2012 by Sonya Revell

Since I’m playing catch up with my blog, I’m going way back in the archives for this post.  This is an assignment I shot for SQUARE back when I was still living in the Bay area.  Square, started by Jack Dorsey, (who is better known as the founder of Twitter) is an awesome mobile payment service which utilizes a credit card reader that plugs into your smart phone or tablet…it allows small businesses (like me) or individuals to accept mobile […]

Playing Catch Up

December 14, 2012 by Sonya Revell

After a looong break from this blogging thing, I’ve decided to re-visit it. A lot has happened since my last blog entry…for one, I moved all the way across the country from Oakland, CA back to Miami, FL (where I lived previously from 2003-2006).  I’m still traveling to CA frequently, in fact I’ll be there at the end of December for a shoot, but I’m now calling Miami home. And speaking of moving/travel… I love maps…I like to look at […]

The Watcher in the Woods

February 5, 2011 by Sonya Revell

So lately I’ve been trying to reference more of my childhood influences in my work.  And oddly enough, I’m beginning to realize just how much I was influenced by a hand-full of scary children’s movies  released in the early 80’s.The two that top the list are Something Wicked This Way Comes, based on the novel by Ray Bradbury and The Watcher in the Woods, staring an older Betty Davis and Kyle Richards (Paris Hilton’s aunt).  I’ve asked around to see […]

Editing Your Own Work for a Portfolio Can be Tricky….and I Need Help!

August 11, 2010 by Sonya Revell

I often develop an emotional attachment to certain images, while growing tired of others after staring at them for so long.  I also sometimes have trouble connecting the dots and creating a cohesive flow from one image to the next, especially in a printed portfolio.  I’ve gotten some great advice and help with editing already (which is how I got this far) but its still not quite finished.  So since I need to stop procrastinating and get this new version […]

Out Takes from the Insider’s Guide to the East Bay

February 24, 2010 by Sonya Revell

In the beginning of February, I photographed somewhere around 15 profile shots for the Insider’s Guide to the East Bay, part of the East Bay Express.  Any time I shoot an editorial assignment I am always curious to see which images the editor will choose.  Although I typically edit the photos I show them  down to between 5 and 25 images (depending on the client) I definitely always have an image (or images) that I prefer over the others.Here are […]

I was recently introduced to Pow Wow dancer Eddie Madril.  Eddie is part of the Pascua Yaqui tribe and does not only Fancy dancing, (Fancy Dancer regalia pictured below) but is also a talented Grass and Hoop dancer.Although I asked Eddie to participate in this shoot specifically for a series I am developing which focuses on dance and movement as a way to express one’s spirituality, I wound up liking the still portraits the best a) because the weather was […]
