I am Kim Carr is an author, photographer, and lifelong animal lover who shares true stories from life on my small farm. Through my books and photography, I invite you, my readers and visitors into a quieter, more grounded world shaped by animals, changing seasons, and everyday moments that matter.
My journey began with a camera and a deep appreciation for farm life. Over time, I felt a need to photograph heritage breed farm animals that are in danger of extinction. I look to share those stories of small Missouri farmers as well as everyday life around the farm. I am now in the process of turning these stories into books so they can be shared with others. I self publish under Hybrid Hollow Production, a name inspired by my farm and a long-standing love of donkeys and mules. |

Living on a working hobby farm for more than three decades has given me an endless supply of stories. From house chickens and rescued dogs to heritage livestock and unexpected adventures, every book I plan to write is rooted in real life. My books are all based on true experiences and feature my own photography, which I digitally enhance to create an illustration to bring each animals’ personalities to life.

While writing has become my primary focus, photography remains an integral part of my creative work. My heritage breed photography highlights the beauty and character of livestock and poultry which are in danger of extinction. Helping preserve their stories through images as well as words is a passion and mission of mine. These photographs are available as fine art prints, wall art and a soon to be book raising awareness of these animals in need and the small Missouri farmers working to preserve endangered farm animals.

At its heart, my work is about connection. Connection to animals. Connection to the land and a simpler life. For my readers and collectors my hope is that I can raise awareness for endangered farm animals and life in general from everyday experiences from around the farm.
My wish is to bring comfort, create curiosity, educate, evoke conversation and build a bond for anyone who comes across my work whether it be fine art or books. I love that I can share my passion while nurturing a positive impact for future generations to come. |
