Advice on porch railing assembly.


I wanted to build my own porch railing and wanted to get some opinions to the design I am going to use. Does anyone know what would be the best wood to use?


I want this railing to last long. I will also be painting it white, so any advice on the type/brand of paint and or stain would be greatly appreciated!

Edit: Sorry I forgot to note that the top and bottom horizontal rails will be 2x4s and the balusters will be 2x2s. The posts are 4x4s, so I didn't want the rail to exceed that thickness.


Edit 2: Also wanted to find out which screws would be best and what size? I was thinking about 3-3.5 inch wood screws.
