Iron Heart is a gorgeous gelding owned by Vicki Hunton who resides at her farm – Olde Oaks Farm in Thompsons, TX.
Like many of us, Vicki is a long-time horse lover. Vicki grew up in a family full of equestrians, so it was no surprise when she fell in love with the sport and majestic animals themselves. After moving to Houston, Vicki began riding at Pecan Tree Farm with Burnis and Dan Foy, where she showed in the hunter ring and observed the Foy’s thoroughbred breeding operation. This immediately grabbed Vicki’s attention and she was hooked. She bred her first foal in 1992 and hasn’t looked back since, now breeding approximately three foals per year with her handful of quality mares. “Vicki bred her first foal in 1992 and hasn’t looked back since, now breeding approximately three foals per year with her handful of quality mares. Vicki combines her almost fifteen years of professional breeding experience with a lifelong love of horses to create a top program in Olde Oaks Farm.”

Portraits for Charity was an idea Karinda dreamt up to help give back to families impacted by Childhood Cancer in memory of her husband’s sister Jessica. During the 2021 Pin Oak Charity Horse Show Karinda photographed around 140 Horses, Dogs, and even Goats, and was able to donate $10,000 to Candlelighter’s Houston. These are the stories of the Horses, Dogs, and Goats that were photographed at the show, these stories complement a photographic book that Karinda is printing and donating to Texas Children’s Hospital featuring Portraits of each and every animal she photographed.
