Hello 2015, Goodbye 2014!

January 7, 2015 by Sonya Revell

Happy 2015! In looking back at 2014, I’m happy to share a selection of my favorite images from the year… In 2014, I got the chance to work with some amazing new clients: PayPal, Keller-Williams Realty, Luxe. Interiors + Design, Inked Magazine, Calik Denim, Prevention Magazine, Northwestern University/Kellogg School of Management, GX Magazine, and University of Minnesota, just to name a few. And while it’s nice to see how far I’ve come in the past year (because sometimes I forget), it’s […]

Roadtrip/Mi Familia

August 13, 2014 by Sonya Revell

A few weeks ago I packed up my car and drove to my Motherland- Kentucky. Along the way, I stopped in Birmingham, AL to visit my nine-months-pregnant cousin, Valerie and her family. While there, I took the opportunity to photograph Valerie’s very photogenic children. This is Tiziri. I asked her to pout and she obliged. I also made some portraits of my cousin’s husband, Djamel (with kids, Aksil and Luiza). These are for a personal project, focused on immigrants, that […]

Vintage, Horses, Blonds…OH MY!

December 2, 2013 by Sonya Revell

I grew up in Kentucky. So like it or not, horse culture is sort of in my blood. Like a good Kentuckian, I took horse-back riding lessons in the second grade and I make the annual trip home every Derby. (Although, funny enough, I’ve never actually attended the Derby. I, instead, go to the Oaks- more of a local tradition.) And I never miss out on a piece of Derby pie. So when I was approached to make some portraits […]

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 […]

White Christmas in the Bluegrass

February 3, 2011 by Sonya Revell

How many people can say that they grew up on a Christmas tree farm? Taylor Swift and Me. That might be it. Okay, okay, I’m sure it’s not that rare and I didn’t really grow up there. I did, however, spend a lot of time running and playing, building fires and roasting marshmallows, learning the names of all the flowers and trees, and creating amazing memories on my Grandparent’s 265 acre farm in Wolf Creek, Kentucky. Back in December, I […]

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 […]
