Hi, my name is Malia! I am a photographer based in Wilmington, NC. I specialize in Weddings, families and newborns. I have always been passionate about photography and I started when I was young with a little camera my mom got me from a thrift store and just grown from there.

Malia has an exceptional eye and mad dog editing skills! Although I hope to never marry again, I can confidently say that I would choose Malia for any future photography needs.

Shegoes Photography & Design is truly an extension of who I am. My love for photography began through travel, capturing cultures and landscapes — but what always grounded me were the people and their stories. That perspective shapes how I photograph weddings today. I care deeply about the experience as much as the images, creating a calm, refined space where couples feel fully present, supported, and completely themselves.

We couldn’t be happier with our wedding photographer! She photographed our beach wedding during the kite festival, which could have been chaotic, but she adapted flawlessly. She stayed calm, creative, and completely in control. The weather was perfect—75 degrees and full sun—and she used the light beautifully. Every photo turned out absolutely amazing, from the candid moments to the portraits. She captured the joy and the energy of the day! If you’re looking for a photographer we can’t recommend her enough!!

It’s life’s simple moments that really get me inspired. Endless sun soaked walks with my pup Ollie + husband Michael, thrifting, vegging out on the beach until I've lost track of time, coffee shops with pals, testing out a new vegan recipe, or sharing a glass of wine with the people that I love. I live for the small, slow, nostalgic moments. Growing up, I was a quiet observer, always dreaming and creating. My desire to photograph + document grew so organically, and now I'm lucky enough to say that I have been photographing professionally for nine years, and truly never see myself stopping.

Meagan Forbes Photography was an absolute pleasure to work with for our wedding day. From the very first interaction, Meagan and her team were friendly, easy-going, and had a great sense of humor that immediately put us at ease. On the day of the wedding, they seamlessly blended into the background and captured incredible, natural-looking photos that truly reflected the casual yet special vibe we were going for. All of our friends have been raving about how amazing the photos turned out - Meagan has an incredible eye for detail and the ability to make everyone feel comfortable in front of the camera.
