Leila and Brian

I met Brian and Leila last year when we met for our first consultation at Selby Gardens in Sarasota, Florida. Even at that point they knew exactly what they wanted for their wedding day, as they asked me all of the right questions that you should ask a photographer. 

  Needless to say, everything went as planned and the wedding day turned out perfectly! Brian and Leila were so fun and easy to work with, and I wish them the best in their new life together.  ( DarrenArenaPhotography.com )

Pure Country

The Deitz Family from Wimauma, Florida (Yes Wimauma) decided to make a trip down to our neck of the woods last week to visit family. Incidentally it is also Micah and Rachel's 10th anniversary this year, so they decided to get some family portraits with their boys Ezra and Ethan as well as a few "anniversary type" photos.

  I absolutely love these kind of easy-going family sittings. When the family is relaxed, I feel relaxed (and vice versa). We have quite a few parks in the Port Charlotte area, but I am partial to this one right in the heart of town called Kiwanis Park on Midway Blvd. It affords many different locations and photo ops to choose from.
