They Took Everything—But I Took My Power Back

It’s been nearly a year, and I’m finally ready to break my silence about what really happened with Christopher Allan Macdonald—and how he and his family shamelessly used me, discarded me, and never once acknowledged the things I did for them, including the expensive epoxy resin art pieces and brooches I crafted with my own two hands. Let’s start at the beginning.Christopher and I technically…

Only Child Syndrome? No—Just Surrounded by Manipulative People

Do you know what I hate? Being forced to act a certain way—especially when people treat me like garbage and expect me to just take it. Let me give you an example. When I was 8 years old, my mom met a woman we’ll call “SA.” That was hands down the worst mistake she ever made. SA had three daughters, and she raised them to be “perfect” in every way—especially when it came to being popular and…

When I was 8 years old my mother met “SA” and it was the biggest mistake ever. SA has three daughters that she made them be perfect in so many ways including popularity in school. Her middle child and I were friends at first. But then her daughter…

A True Miracle in Motion I’m about to get into some deep feelings — and it might hurt a few people — but honestly, I don’t mind anymore.The truth is, they were never supportive of me beyond the surface, beyond what my business could offer them. When I was 16 years old, my mom threw me a Sweet 16 party at our ranch — a beautiful celebration to mark what would unknowingly become the last time I…

From Tears Before Every Shift to Thriving: My Story of Surviving a Toxic Workplace at CPK

I made a promise on Snapchat the day I received the settlement check in the mail—from the lawsuit against California Pizza Kitchen for creating a toxic work environment. And let me just say, that accusation was absolutely accurate. Today, I’m finally writing this post to speak openly about how toxic that environment truly was for me. The reason I’m writing about it now is because I’ve been…

Curveballs, Courage, and New Beginnings: A December to Remember

Well, this month has definitely been a test for me, with life throwing multiple curveballs my way. Last week, I had my eye doctor’s appointment. Keep in mind that last year, I suffered a bleeding head injury that resulted in a concussion lasting two months. During the appointment, I discovered that my vision has significantly worsened to the point where I now need bifocals. On top of that, I’m…

Over time, this mission has shaped the services I offer today, such as photography for moments like live births, stillbirths, and other deeply personal…
