Hi, I’m Sam! I started Freckled Heron Studios to share unique and contemporary floral designs with my local community, businesses, and fellow human beings around the world. With a background in sustainable farming, I choose to grow my own flowers or source from other local farmers rooted in ethical and organic use of the land. I honor my medium by using sustainable floral design practices only - nothing single use, artificial, or harmful to the earth.
If you need flowers, I’d be grateful to provide them! From a bouquet for your mom to custom wedding florals, curated restaurant or retail space design to editorial photo shoots, or flower crowns for a bachelorette party to product marketing ads…I’m all ears and excited to figure out what I can create for you! Together - through artful collaboration, playfulness, and flowers - we can transform feelings and spaces.
Since childhood, I’ve been picking flowers to experiment with different arrangement and sculptural techniques to showcase their beauty in new ways. Following a string of market farming internships, I (not so surprisingly) found myself taking a particular liking to flower and herb farming. Living in the post-pandemic world, I couldn’t help but notice how disconnected we are as a society…with nature, ourselves, and each other. This is why I prioritize designing for gatherings, celebrations, and events; because community and culture are made through the connection that happens at them. The beauty of flowers is something everyone has experienced at least once and been better for; so my design is intended to be a reminder to all that we have everything we need - nature and each other.
