Hey there! I’m Bri, a wedding and couples photographer serving Wilmington, NC, the East Coast, and beyond. I document love stories on both digital and film, weaving in 35mm, medium format, Polaroids, and even Super 8 to create images that feel timeless and textured. My approach is rooted in storytelling, capturing the candid, unscripted moments alongside intentional editorial portraits so your photos feel both natural and artful. If you’re looking for a calming, collaborative photographer who captures the depth of your connection, not just pretty pictures, I’d love to start dreaming up your day together.

I hope at the end of reading this review, your heart is beaming with joy and excitement knowing that this is THE person who can capture those special moments you want to look back on years down the road. Long story short - CA girl moves to OH. My love and I created a home. Bri is now family. I knew all I had to do was have an Americano ready and outfits laid out. In seconds we were laughing and rollin. Bri captured the warm light that pours through the blinds of our big loft windows so magically. Her energy is genuine and calming. I loved that her style was more candid and authentic than structured because as Austin and I sipped coffee, danced around and loved each other, she was capturing those moments most dream about – the butterfly smiles, the gestures sometimes you think only you two notice, the kisses given that make your heart full. What I didn't truly realize, was how important it is to have photographer that makes you feel comfortable. This is a person seeing the most intimate, important moments of your life and I couldn't imagine anyone else being behind the lens capturing those other than Bri. I feel so fortunate to share some big life moments with Bri and can't recommend her enough. We love her and know you will too!!

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. We could not be happier with the value and quality of service we received, and highly recommend Meagan Forbes Photography to any couple looking for an amazing wedding photographer.
