Sophia Barrett

Sophia Barrett is the co-owner and creative force behind Sophia Barrett Studios, a Black-owned boutique portrait studio based in Atlanta, Georgia. Alongside her husband Derrick Barrett—an industrial engineer-turned-photographer—Sophia has spent over 13 years building a brand that merges fine art with empowering visual storytelling. After earning her degree in Interior Design from Suffolk University New England School of Design, Sophia moved to Atlanta seeking a fresh start. Her journey into photography began when Derrick gifted her a DSLR camera. What started as a creative outlet quickly grew into a thriving photography business. For the first 5-6 years of her business she primarily focused on weddings but in 2018 she began to shift to fine art portraiture. Sophia’s artistic voice is deeply rooted in her Caribbean heritage, love of fantasy fiction, and passion for celebrating women—especially women of color. Her work is known for its emotional depth, attention to detail, and visual elegance. From luxury-styled sets to empowering workshops, she uses photography to highlight beauty, strength, courage, and vulnerability.
