Resident of the Bergen County Horse Rescue farm of New Jersey, Wyatt is a blind Appaloosa who responds to singing. He leads his way through hearing. He is a beautiful and kind soul. I have been taking portraits of BCHR's horses for over a year, building a series in the hopes of raising funds for their care. It has been the most rewarding joy to be a small part of their lives.

Hélène McGuire is an award-winning photographer who specializes in horses, street, Black & White fine art prints to as well as portraits that capture the unique essence of each individual.

With a passion for images, storytelling, and an eye for detail, Hélène creates timeless and elegant art inspired by her European roots.
