Darren is an amazing photographer. He is very flexible and accommodating.
He went above and beyond to make our experience the best it could
be. The pictures were incredible. The turn around time was fast which
as a bride I appreciated not waiting forever!!! Above all the quality
really sets him apart from any photographer I've seen work
from lately. We've been to several weddings this year and I can
say with confidence that my photos and album were far superior!

Darren was an amazing photographer! We were truly lucky to have been recommended to him. He was always there to get in touch with before the wedding with any questions or concerns. He was extremely professional, but also very warm, and you feel comfortable working with him. All the pictures turned out better than we ever could have imagined. He truly captured every part of our night, and the pictures will hold every memory we have of that night forever. We had so many compliments and how perfect the pictures were, and how unique some of his shots were. I would recommend him over and over again. Thank you so much for everything you did for us.

Where do I start... Let me just say that Darren Arena Photography is the best!! He was prompt, kind, sweet, and I didn't even know he was snapping shots. I went back and forth and back and forth with trying to figure out who was the best fit for me; when it came to my taste, and with the price I wanted to spend. He has a quick turnaround time with absolutely everything, including pictures on the website, calling you back, returning your emails, your CD/Copy Wright book. Let me just say I wish he lived closer!! I would use him for our family and seasonal photos!! I think what topped it off for me, was his overall disposition. He was so much fun! When I asked for him to take some additional photos, the answer was YES!! When people ask who did your photography for the wedding, I am glad that I can say " DARREN ARENA PHOTOGRAPHY"!! Using Darren is a MUST!!!!!

Thanks Darren Arena Photography for making my day, as special as can be!!

Darren did an amazing job on our wedding photography. He took tons of photos and made them all unique. He complimented the overall style we wanted for our wedding and captured it in every picture. We could not be happier with his service and it was a great experience to work with someone so fun and easy going. We would definitely recommend him to anyone looking for a wedding photographer!

I hired Darren Arena Photography to photograph my wedding which was in Tampa. First off I would rate Darren's responsiveness, professionalism, and flexibility more than 5 stars. Darren was always available for any questions, immediately responded to any questions I had and he worked with me when I changed my venue, reception location, and photo package. His quality of service was exceptional and his value for cost is outstanding. Darren also did my engagement session which turned out to be absolutely stunning. On our wedding day, he was there as I was getting ready to take pictures to document the entire day. He did an exceptional job doing all of the after ceremony pictures. At the reception, I barely saw Darren but when I looked at the pictures, he was everywhere and didn't miss a thing. And the turn around time for getting your pictures is amazing as well, literally a few days. I didn't hire a videographer so Darren had a tall order being the only person to document my big day and Darren didn't let me down. The pictures are beautiful and I am so pleased with the quality and service that Darren Arena Photography delivered. Darren did a fabulous job. Thank you!

Darren is just an all around awesome guy. My husband and I are not fans of being in front of a camera at all, but with Darren we were relaxed and able to forget that someone was snapping shots of us all day. The packages he offers are extremely reasonable, and the turnaround time!! I think we were able to view photos the Tuesday after our SATURDAY wedding. That is unheard of! The photos are absolutely gorgeous, even the candids, he really knows how to use lighting. I can't wait to get the albums!

He was one of the best photographers I have ever seen. Even my guests commented on how great he was. He is very creative and fun. It was almost as if he was part of the wedding party. His pictures came out just beautifully, and the wedding book he creates is amazing. He was very affordable and I got superior service.

Darren was absolutely amazing. He worked with my husband and I on very short notice, really knew what moments to capture and was practically invisible most of the day and still managed to get great shots! He made us as well as our friends and family feel very comfortable and was quick to pose us and move on. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a professional and fun photographer.

It was a true pleasure working with Darren Arena and I can easily recommend Darren Arena Photography to future brides for several reasons. First, Darren is very approachable, friendly, flexible and professional. It was easy to contact and communicate with him. He has a very pleasant personality and made both my fiancé and me very comfortable during shoots. The experiences were even fun (and my fiancé was not someone who enjoyed photo sessions)! Darren is very flexible and adaptive to your ideas as well. On the day of our wedding Darren was amazing. He was there taking photographs for the entire event but was hardly seen. Other than our requested family shots, Darren blended into the scenery and moved around so quietly that we almost forgot that he was there. However, after seeing the photos we realized that he was there for every second of the event capturing numerous treasured moments. Finally, besides being exceptional to work with, his photos are breathtaking! Overall, I highly recommend contacting him and scheduling your session. I’m sure you will be very happy you did!

Darren was fun to work with and very proffesional. He was open to our opinions and would take it in consideration. He also had new and fun ideas for our wedding album. On time and never left you guessing, all of our questions were answered right away, always accessible when we needed him. Exellent service would recomend to all my friends and family!

My husband and i loved the photos that darren took for our wedding. I enjoyed the photos that darren took of me and my family gettin ready for our special day. Everyone has made such nice compliments on our photos. Darren does amazing work and we would have never chosen anyone else other then him to do our wedding

After meeting with Darren, my husband and I knew he was the one. We had met with other photographers but we both were impressed for his eye for detail when he showed us his portfolio.

The day of the wedding he arrived early and ready to work. He made me feel at ease in the midst of the chaos taking place in the bridal suite. But you would never think there was any craziness taking place after seeing the photos. He managed to capture the essence of family and friends helping a girl out for one of her most important days of her life.

When viewing Darren's portfolio prior to our wedding, it was the shots taken on the beach that made our decision to go with Darren even easier, they were great. Our wedding pictures were no different. The pictures he took of us on the beach look absolutely beautiful. I thought they belonged in a magazine but it was our wedding!

As a bride who lives out of state, it was important to me that all vendors have great communication. Darren always kept in touch and demonstrated a great deal of professionalism. Our wedding was on a Saturday and by the following Thursday he had our final pictures online ready for us and our guests to view.

If I had to do it all over again, Darren would definitely be my first choice. After a year of planning, all you have are the memories and the pictures. Darren was able to tell a beautiful story through his camera and surpassed our expectations. Even while he took the pictures of us during the wedding I knew they were going to turn out great. Now that tells you a lot.

My husband and I are so pleased with our photo's from our wedding. Darren Arena Photography os a number one choice!! Everyone who has seen our album wants to continue looking at it over and over again!!

i will definately recommend darren arena photography.

We loved the photos Darren did for my cousin's wedding a few years ago. So when it was time to book a photographer, the decision was easy.
I was very nervous on my wedding day, but Darren was so relaxed and friendly that he made pictures a breeze!

My husband and I call him the "Photo Ninja" because he's able to get so many awesome shots--and you never notice he's there.

We love our wedding photos and highly recommend Darren Arena Photography!

Was wonderful !!! He was so much fun to work with, very flexible. Very professional with every thing. Fabulous results at the end. We would&have recommend him as a photographer to anyone.
