Corrie+Gabe | Tampa, Florida Wedding Photography

Sun. February 7, 2010 Posted in Wedding Photography

Corrie + Gabe were married on January 23, 2010.  I have known Gabe and his family through our church for more than 10 years.  I haven’t known Corrie as long but she is one of those sweet souls who makes everyone she comes in contact with feel like they have been friends forever.

Their wedding as held in the courtyard of Presbyterian Church of Seffner and Corrie was escorted by her son, Aden.  In a large part, the magic of their wedding ceremony was the simplicity of the event and the surroundings.  The courtyard was beautifully landscaped, the trees were adorned with jewels and flowers hanging from the branches on wire, and the guests sat on bales of hay wrapped in white cloth.  It couldn’t have been any more perfect!  Their reception was held at Keel and Curley Winery in nearby Plant City, Florida.

Here is a slideshow of a few of the images from their wedding taken by Jeff and Nancy from Jeff Mason Photography.  Thank you for inviting us to share in your wonderful day.

Baby Sarah

Mon. January 25, 2010 Posted in Family Portraits, Portraits, Senior Portraits

One of the great things about meeting a bride and groom and photographing their wedding is that they become a mom and dad.  I photographed Kimberly+David’s wedding in 2008, it was a super fun wedding at the Hard Rock Hotel and Casino in Tampa.  Kim and I have been kept in touch through facebook so I knew that they were expecting.  Well, in December Kim called me to say that they would be in Tampa and would I photograph their new baby girl, Sarah.  Uh, of course!   It was so nice to see Kim and David again and to meet the beautiful little Miss Sarah.  I look forward to being their family photographer for many years to come.

Here are a few of Sarah’s pictures.

Annie+Doug | St. Petersburg Beach Wedding

Wed. April 29, 2009 Posted in Beach wedding, Wedding Photography

Saturday Annie and Doug were married on St. Petersburg Beach at the Grand Plaza and we were there to photograph their day.  Annie and Doug as well as their family and friends all came down here from Kansas City for the wedding.  They had about 30 people so it was a really intimate and fun time.  I enjoyed hearing about their adventures over the past few days but to protect the innocent (or not) I’ll leave it out of this blog post ;-) .  As you can see, Annie is a beautiful bride and she and Doug make a great couple.  I hope you guys have an awesome time in Negril.  Here are a few of my favorite images and a slideshow.  Enjoy!  -Jeff

Chrissy+Ed | St. Petersburg Sunken Gardens Wedding

Wed. April 22, 2009 Posted in Wedding Photography

Chrissy and Ed were married on 4/18/2009 at St. Petersburg Sunken Gardens.  It’s a beautiful botanical garden and they had their ceremony near the butterfly garden.  Their reception was at the Marriott Pinellas Park.  Both of their families were a lot of fun and there was a lot of dancing during the reception but one thing that really stuck in my mind was what Ed’s brother, Pete,  said during his toast.  He said that Ed has always been one to do things his own way and that when Ed told him that he cared, truly cared, for Chrissy that was when Pete knew they were meant for each other.  Chrissy and Ed, I wish you many years of health and happiness together.  Here is a slideshow with a few images from their day.

Sarah – Class of 2009 | Tampa Senior Portraits

Wed. April 8, 2009 Posted in Senior Portraits

Sarah is a Senior at Armwood High School and we attend church together.  She is active in the church youth group.  One of my favorite memories of Sarah since I’ve known her was when the youth group came to our house during christmas and Sarah had this “hat” on that was more a cone-shaped spring than a hat and had a bell on the top!  It reminded me of something from Dr. Suess.

Sarah has been president of Armwood’s FFA chapter and is looking forward to college.  She is a Senior Spokesmodel for our studio and will be earning discounts on her senior pictures.  She will also be earning gift certificates from some of her favorite stores like Abercrombie & Fitch and Hollister for referring her friends to Jeff Mason Photography for their senior pictures.

Here is a slideshow from Sarah’s session.

Keanna – Class of 2009 | Tampa Senior Photos

Wed. April 8, 2009 Posted in Senior Portraits

I’ve known Keanna for several years and was excited when she asked if she could be a Senior Spokesmodel for Jeff Mason Photography. Keanna goes to Brandon High School. She is originally from Slidell, LA and came to Tampa after hurricane Katrina to stay with her aunt and uncle who are our good friends. Well, after the schools reopened in Slidell she had already settled into Brandon and didn’t want to leave her friends, so she stayed…and we are glad she did.

Being a Senior Spokesmodel Keanna received a 10 page 5×5 photobook and photo referral cards to hand out to friends. She will be earning discounts on her Senior pictures and will be receiving gift certificates for hair and nail salons and stores like Abercrombie and Hollister when her friends book their senior pictures with Jeff Mason Photography.

Here’s a video with a few pictures from her session.

Karyn+Alex | Hilton Clearwater Beach Florida Wedding

Tue. March 31, 2009 Posted in Travel, Wedding Photography

Karyn and Alex were married March 29 at the Hilton Clearwater Beach Resort in Florida.  They live in Manhattan and made the trip down here with about 60 of their family and friends for a destination wedding on our wonderful beach.  It’s obvious that they are loved by many since guests came from as far away as Seattle, TX, TN, and upstate NY.

The weather was a bit sketchy in the morning but by the time the ceremony started it was nothing but blue skys and sunshine!  Here is a video with a few of my favorite pics from the day.  Congratulations, you guys!  -Jeff
