Portrait of Naeem Khan | Wine Spectator

February 6, 2018 by Sonya Revell

A few months back, I was invited to the Miami pied-a-terre of renowned fashion designer, Naeem Khan, for a photo shoot with Wine Spectator magazine.  (You can see the article here, http://www.winespectator.com/webfeature/show/id/Wine-Design-Fashion-Mogul-Naeem-Khan)  I didn’t have to travel far, as Khan’s penthouse apartment is located just a mile from my condo.  (Of course, his home and my home are a world apart in terms of scale and furnishings. 😉 Khan is known for his colorful and ornate designs, that have attracted the likes of […]

A Portrait of Granada Presbyterian for ByFaith Magazine

August 25, 2016 by Sonya Revell

A while back, I got a fun commission from ByFaith magazine, to create portraits of the congregation at Granada Presbyterian Church, for their cover story on diversity.  My assistant, Dragi and I set up a make-shift studio inside Granada’s sanctuary, in Coral Gables, FL and with some help, gathered and photographed as many members as we could over the course of one day.  Everyone at Granada was incredibly welcoming and it was wonderful to meet so many families and individuals, […]

New Lifestyle Photography for a New Year

February 3, 2016 by Sonya Revell

I’m not big on New Year’s resolutions.  I do, however, like to kick off each new year with a portfolio shoot (which superstition dictates must be completed within the first week of January). Unfortunately here in Miami, 2016 started off with lots and lots of rain.  So while my inspiration was telling me to do a lifestyle shoot at the beach, El Niño seemed to be laughing in my face. Thankfully Laura, my styling cohort and I kept a close […]

The French Horn – Conceptual Portraits

May 13, 2015 by Sonya Revell

Stagnation sucks.  As a commercial photographer, I find it so important to continually challenge myself by evolving my style and technique.  The best way that I’ve found to keep stagnation from setting in, is to work on personal photography projects as often as I can. For my latest self-assignment, I wanted to create a conceptual portrait within a nightscape.  Since I love photographing performers, I approached the amazingly talented gypsy/jazz band, The French Horn, about collaborating.  They were open to […]

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 […]

Essentia Spa Shoot at the Delano Hotel

October 23, 2014 by Sonya Revell

If I had to name my favorite hotel on South Beach, it would probably be the Delano. I still remember my first trip to the iconic hotel as a spry 22-year-old, straight out of Kentucky.  At that time, the Delano, with its promise of glamour, adventure and an unforeseen trip down the rabbit hole (thanks to Philippe Starck’s designs), really embodied for me the larger enigmatic quality of Miami (in general). So when I was approached by Travelzoo to photograph Club […]

Portrait of Lt. Colonel Ricardo Roig for GX Magazine

September 4, 2014 by Sonya Revell

Straight out of the gate, my shoot for GX Magazine presented a interesting challenge; while the shoot would  take place in South Florida, the images needed to look as if they could have been taken in Iraq.  (Hummm!?)   Thankfully Lieutenant Colonel Ricardo Roig, the main subject I would be photographing, was on it.  He proposed that the shoot take place at the West Palm Beach Armory, where he oversees the weaponry and equipment.  With its gravel parking lot, tree-less […]

Wonderful Machine Does Miami

March 10, 2014 by Sonya Revell

I thought I’d share a recent blog post written by Wonderful Machine’s producer extraordinaire, Karrisa Olsen.  It’s a fun recap of their recent meet-and-greet/portfolio-sharing trip to Miami.  I have been partnered with WM for many years – first when I lived in California and again when I moved back to Miami.  They have been a huge asset to my business, especially when it comes to marketing, estimating, and portfolio editing .  We got together for happy hour in downtown Miami to […]
