Sam is truly AMAZING!! If you are thinking about using her as your wedding photographer, DO ITTT! She is super understanding and easy to work with throughout the whole planning process. She not only provides a fun, upbeat atmosphere while taking your pictures. But is also willing to go above and beyond to get every picture or angle you could ever want on your big day! I just recently got my wedding photos back from my June wedding and I am in awe. They are so stunning that I actually teared up while looking at some of them. I could not recommend her enough!
We are beyond thrilled with our engagement & wedding photos! We were a little timid during our engagement shoot, but Sam was great at getting us to relax and ease into the shoot. We needed a little extra help with posing as we are not super comfortable in front of the camera, and she made sure to help guide us without getting us too far outside our comfort zone.
When it came time for wedding photos, Sam was AMAZING! We connected a couple weeks before the wedding to go over the timeline and overall flow of the day. On the day of the wedding we ran into a few hiccups but Sam helped to keep us on track, problem solve, and capture our day so beautifully! With the help of her second shooter, Kayla, our photos turned out so much better than we could have asked for!
The start of the day was chaotic, which was followed by getting a ton of people to pose and smile for family photos, the end of the day was FUN! We keep talking about how much fun we had with our photographers during our sunset photos! It was a great time to get away from the guests and frolic through the flowers at our venue.
If you're looking for someone who is not only a skilled photographer but also genuinely cares about making your wedding memories last forever, look no further! We can’t recommend Frolic Photography highly enough!
Thank you for everything!

Your wedding day should feel like yours. I’ll make sure it does. I'm Sam, I photograph weddings the way they actually feel, not the way they're supposed to look.
I'm guessing you don't want stiff, overly-directed photos. You want your day to feel fun, exciting, and yours. I know when to hang back and let a moment breathe, and I know when to step in and help with posing. You'll be surprised by how much both matter.
Here's how it works:
1. You fill out my contact form and we hop on a call to see if we're a good fit, no pressure!
2. Before your wedding day we get some time together, whether that's an engagement session or just coffee, so I'm a familiar face by the time it matters.
3. On your wedding day your only job is to show up and be present. I'll handle the rest.
4. A few weeks later your gallery lands in your inbox. Full of moments you actually lived through. Not just a wedding. Your wedding.
Based in St. Cloud, MN. Documenting weddings across Central Minnesota and the midwest.

I’m Sam, a documentary-style wedding photographer based in St. Cloud, MN. My job isn’t to direct a photoshoot. It’s to read the room, know when to step back and let things unfold, and know when to step in and help. The chaos, the laughing so hard you can’t breathe, that nervous moment before you walk down the aisle... I’m there for all of it.
I want to know you before your wedding day, not just show up. That means a pre-wedding conversation and a day that actually feels like yours.
Based in St. Cloud, serving Central MN, the Twin Cities, and the midwest.
