Kisa Kavass has been a professional portrait and fine art photographer for over twenty years. Her fine artwork has been featured in numerous magazines and group and solo shows across the United States.

Several years ago she became involved with a domestic horse rescue in Tennessee, learning that our domestic horses are also in need of protection from abuse and the horse slaughter pipeline. These horses come to the rescue in need of love and care and in time they are able to begin new lives. Kisa documents the horses and their progress with her photography. As an artist, she hopes that you can share the feeling of being in the presence of these majestic animals and that her images will inspire everyone to become more engaged with the plight of the herds and their family bands and appreciate the importance of protecting our wild lands. 

Kisa has also created a stunning body of work of horses and their companions, along with intimate images of wildlife, vernacular architecture, and landscapes.

​As horses fly with spirits unbound,
thundering hooves echo of lost freedom found.
Divine messengers of grace and light, 
spark our senses to set things right.
They are shimmering angels amidst the chaos, 
a rhythmic plea, a dream of peace for all creatures to see.
In the season's hushed whispers, as snowflakes fall, silent and pure,
the belief burns from within, rekindling our hopes with gentle allure.
A shower of brilliant thoughts falls upon us, washing away the wrong, 
and gently leading us to where we always belong.
From a soft embrace, a blanket of snow, 
in a fragile world, embers of hope begin to glow.
This time of year draws all souls near,
reigniting hearts with love and cheer.
In this moment of warmth and giving, 
a chance for healing and forgiving.
And the horses fly free.
