Portrait of Alexander Krivoshiew for Luxe Interiors + Design

April 10, 2016 by Sonya Revell

As an editorial photographer, often times I photograph a story or a profile that I’m really excited to share, but then rather than putting it out into the world right away, I have to wait…for months…until it’s published.  That was the case with metal sculpture artist, Alexander Krivoshiew’s profile for the current issue of Luxe Interiors + Design.  And to add to my excitement even more, the photo editor informed me that rather than running it as the usual four […]

Portrait of Lou Mosca and George Cloutier, of American Management Services, Forbes Magazine

Portrait Photography for Forbes Magazine

March 17, 2016 by Sonya Revell

I met up with George Cloutier and Lou Mosca, of American Management Services, at George’s home office in Palm Beach, FL.  I had been commissioned by Forbes to make a portrait of Lou and George just after Christmas. Since the house was decorated for the holidays, we opted to shoot in the outdoor space overlooking the ocean…not bad.  The only caveat to shooting outside, was having mother nature cooperate.  Within a matter of minutes the weather shifted from bright sun to […]

Portrait of an Artisan and his Studio

February 13, 2016 by Sonya Revell

Over the past two years, I’ve photographed many artists, designers and craftspersons, from Miami to Palm Beach, for Luxe Interiors + Design magazine.  Some of the studio spaces and materials are especially inspiring.  And some of the people I’m tasked with making portraits of are especially inspiring.  This assignment happened to encompass both. Dan Droney is a ceramic tile artist based in West Palm Beach, FL.  He is not only talented at his craft, but is also one of the […]

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 […]

Art/Design/Architecture – Portrait of a Miami Design Team

November 23, 2015 by Sonya Revell

With Art Basel 2015 just around the corner, Miami’s art scene is abuzz in anticipation.   For this month’s Luxe Interiors + Design I was given the extraordinary task of photographing one of Miami’s preeminent art/design/architecture teams-  Rosario Marquardt and Roberto Behar, of R & R Studios.  Over the last few years I’ve made portraits of many of South Florida’s most talented artists and designers.  However, working with this husband-and-wife team felt a little extra special.  I was already quite fond […]

Preserving the Past in Palm Beach

September 24, 2015 by Sonya Revell

Note to self….Don’t knock over the priceless painting!  That was my first thought upon entering Barbara Stella’s pristine studio in West Palm Beach, Florida, where she works to conserve and restore art.  Did I mention her resume includes the restoration of pieces by master painters, Rembrandt and Veronese? Once I got over my irrational fear of tripping into a priceless work of art, I had a great time photographing the space and collaborating with Barbara on our Luxe Interiors + Design […]

Quiet Portraits of a Family

September 12, 2015 by Sonya Revell

I was recently commissioned to make some portraits of the Tavakolis, a terrific family with whom I’ve collaborated in the past.  I’ve always had a great experience photographing this lovely family, as they have a shared enthusiasm for the craft, an openness to ideas, and well… they’re just all-around good people. For this shoot, we met up at the Eau Palm Beach Resort & Spa, where my assistant, Dragi and I set up a make-shift studio in the Tavakolis’ room. […]

Conceptual Photography for Walmart World

May 24, 2015 by Sonya Revell

In celebration of Memorial Day, I thought I’d share this conceptual portrait photography assignment I shot last year for Walmart World.  For this shoot, I had the pleasure of working with retired Navy veteran, Ricardo Pinolay, along with his lovely wife and daughter.  Pinolay currently works as the Walmart sporting goods and auto department manager here in Miami and was a complete natural in front of the camera.

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 […]

Dot 51 Gallery for Luxe Interiors + Design

April 17, 2015 by Sonya Revell

I’ve been anxiously awaiting the arrival of the most recent issue of Luxe Interiors + Design, as it includes a fun photography spread we shot at Dot 51 Gallery, in the Wynwood arts district of Miami.  Alfredo Guzman and Isaac Perelman, the owners/curators of Dot 51 were extremely welcoming and easy to photograph.  We had a great time working on this all-encompassing shoot, which incorporated everything from the gallery space featuring the art, to portraits of Guzman and Perelman, to the […]
