My screen light went out on my S7 and can't see anything, so any suggestions on getting my contacts and pics off the phone?

If you haven't already had the phone connected to the PC and given it permanent permission, only a screen replacement.

If you have, just plug it in and copy the pics - you don't need the screen on the phone, just the screen on the PC. The contacts are at Google Contacts and will sync with the next phone you put on that Google account. (If you had the settings at the factory default, the pictures will be at Google Photos so you don't have to get anything off the phone.)
