One thing I don't love very much is to be 3-betting AQs, and AKs, even ATs, and AJs versus SB raisor: the reason is very simple, SB will always display a very far range, even NITs are stealing from time to time, so we must be calling in a very good frequency, I would say that from here I would be calling 50% of times the top of my range and 3-betting the other 50%. 
If we do always 3-bet the top of our range versus the SB we give a very easy fold for a range that we know tends to be large, and when we do get call or 4-bet we are also not happy, unless when we are with KK+ and AK, but let's play poker instead of hands.

The Flop

It seems you are overplaying the top of your range a little, because you c-bet for more than 1/2 pot, and this is not necessary, we give again a very good fold for Villain because we don't expect AA and AK on SB's range, so are we trying to extract value from worst aces, such as A2, A3, A4, A7, A8, A9, AT, etc, which means, Villain can float us now with a bunch of worst aces and we cannot go OTT unless when we own AA and AK.
I guess that a 1/2 pot c-bet would have done the work just fine, if you intend to look for protection.

The Turn

Having no statistics to work with we should unfortunatley be folding this very strong hand.
