About

Fancy Horse Films specializes in documentary storytelling; collaborating with small businesses, nonprofits, and large corporations alike. We help tell stories and elevate brands through cinematic video.

"I first pursued video work in 2009 as a film student at the University of Wisconsin, Milwaukee. My schooling encouraged me to become an independent video artist. Through Fancy Horse Films, I strive to achieve cinematic storytelling and eschew the point-and-shoot mentality associated with traditional videography. Quality cinematography, lush imagery, and meaningful editing all coalesce to breath life into my films."​

-Sam Karow, Owner/Founder of Fancy Horse Films

Perfect!!!

Our wedding video turned out better than we could have imagined! Sam was there to get all the good shots, but you could hardly notice that he was there. He was very professional, friendly, and quick to respond.

Easy to work with, great quality

From beginning to end, Sam had great communication and was easy to get a hold of and was easy to talk to. During the day he worked well with our group and vendors, especially the photographer. We were thrilled with our final video. Not having a videographer was not an option for us and we were so happy to find Fancy Horse Films.

You won’t regret hiring Sam!

Sam was the videographer at our wedding. He was reasonably priced & wonderful to work with. He worked side by side with our photographers to make sure our day was captured so beautifully. We couldn’t be happier with our video & he even sent us clips of our first dances too. We recommend him in a heartbeat.

Best wedding video ever

Fancy Horse Films provided an amazing wedding video that surpassed all of our expectations! They uniquely captured the day and the quality of the film was extremely high quality - it looks like a movie! The color, sound, and editing were perfect.

On top of that, the Fancy Horse Films team was extremely professional and kind, they made for great additions to the day and were so easy and fun to work with.

I highly recommend them - you will not be disappointed.

Amazing! Must have!

Videography was something my husband and I knew was a top 3 need. Sam was great to work with and had very reasonable pricing with different package options! He was very open to any ideas, but also had an amazing vision that we trusted him with! Nothing felt scripted, you honestly would forget he was even there - he was able to catch all the raw, beautiful, fun moments of the day. He was very responsive and we didn't wait long for our first edit proof! We requested one change and he was able to do that quick with no problem. We opted for the music highlight and full day edit and have watched both countless of times! The highlight film showed the fun, joy, and love of the day, to which we were able to pick out music options. The 1hr+ wedding day film was so fun to watch together and seeing the things we missed and reliving the day. To be able to go back and watch our wedding day every year on our anniversary will be something we will cherish forever! Hire Sam! You won't regret it one bit. Must have.

An amazing videographer!

We couldn’t be happier with our experience with Sam! Not only did he curate a beautiful wedding video for us, he even was willing to accommodate our specific requests during the whole process.

He managed to capture everything, even the CUTEST intimate moments, without making us feel like we were being followed or being in the way. He truly has mastered his wedding videography skills and turned them into an amazing art form.

Highly recommend!

VERY Impressed and happy with final product

My now husband and I found information for Fancy Horse Films randomly online while we were searching for videographers and much like our wedding day, everything just fell into place. We wanted to have a video that captured all the details from the day and was light hearted and had a lot of candid moments.

Honestly we were a little nervous at first not having spoken with anyone and only communicating via email, but Sam was super friendly, on time for everything and worked great with our photographer. It only took about 1 month for us to have the initial edits of our video and from there we had the chance to add/remove/change anything that we wanted. We wanted to make one minor change and that was done very quickly.

In the end, we could have never anticipated loving our video as much as we did. Fancy Horse Films (Sam) did such a great job highlighting our special day!

The best investment!

Sam did amazing work on our wedding video and we are so impressed with the result! We barely noticed the camera the day of the wedding but the video captured everything. I was on the fence about getting a videographer for my wedding and seeing the final videos took away all my hesitation. It was so worth it and I can’t wait to look back on the day for years too come. Thank you so much Sam for the amazing work you did!
