Before the Session

Choosing a photographer to document life’s most meaningful moments is no small decision—and I’m truly honored you’re considering Arlyne VanHook Photography. I understand the trust you’re placing in me, and I take that responsibility to heart.

Before your session, we’ll have a personal consultation to get to know each other and talk through your vision. This time together allows me to understand what matters most to you, so I can tell your story in a way that feels genuine and true. We’ll also chat about ideal locations, outfit options, and the vibe you want for your shoot—all to make sure every detail reflects you.

Sessions are available any day of the week, Monday through Sunday. I love working with natural light, so I recommend scheduling in the morning or late afternoon when the lighting is soft, golden, and most flattering.


During the Session

Our standard session lasts about one hour and takes place at a location of your choice. If you’ve seen my work, you know I don’t do stiff, posed photos or forced smiles. My goal is to capture real moments—your laughter, connection, and personality.

To help you feel completely comfortable, I build in time at the start of the session for you to relax and settle in. Think of this as a warm-up: we’ll move, explore, and play a bit, allowing your authentic self to shine through. Typically, after about 20 minutes, the magic really begins—and that’s when we capture the moments you’ll treasure forever.


After the Session

I know the wait for your images can feel like forever—but I promise, it’s worth it! I’m committed to editing your photos with care, attention, and artistry so that your memories are beautifully preserved.

Within two weeks of your session, your images will be ready and delivered via a private, password-protected online gallery. As soon as your gallery is live, you’ll receive an email with access instructions and all the info you need to view, download, and share your images.

Your trust means everything to me, and I’m so excited to deliver a collection of photographs that you’ll love for a lifetime.
