Arnold Family Portraits

I spent the morning photographing some long time friends and now neighbors and their new little boy. These were shot as in a lifestyle/photojournalistic fashion which is how I prefer to shoot families (as opposed to more traditional posed "look at the camera and smile" shots). I try to capture not only life as it happens for real, but also the surroundings, especially with children. Little ones grow up so fast and it's always hard to remember how small they once were. Hopefully these guys will be able to look back one day and remember him growing up in their quaint little cottage. Here are a few of the shots! If you want to see more, check out a quick slideshow.
