It really rather depends on what the modern Sonnet-writer is doing. A modern sonnet-writer might well adopt the rhythm, rhyme scheme and general structure of Shakespeare's sonnets. In this case, the only difference would be that they are different poems which is obvious.

Among Shakespeare's many sonnets about love are Sonnet 18 ("Shall I Compare Thee to a Summer's Day"), Sonnet 105 ("Let Not My Love Be Called Idolatry"), and Sonnet 130 ("My Mistress' Eyes Are Nothing Like the Sun").
