Elizabeth+Adam | St. Pete Beach Wedding Photography

Fri. June 18, 2010 Posted in Wedding Photography

Elizabeth and Adam were married June 13, 2010 on St. Petersburg Beach, FL at the Sirata Beach Resort.  Many couples come to Florida for their destination weddings which sometimes makes it difficult for family and friends to attend.  For Elizabeth and Adam’s wedding it didn’t seem to be an issue.  Even though they came to Florida from Albuquerque they had friends and family from 14 states come to share in their day.  That’s pretty impressive!

It was another scorcher of a day but it didn’t bother Elizabeth or Adam.  Actually, I think Elizabeth is used to staying cool in the heat and under pressure.  Not only has she been planning for her wedding but she was also studying to take the bar exam…which she recently passed on the first attempt!

Congratulations to the two of you; I wish you many happy and healthy years together.

Here are a few images from their day.

Melissa+Chris | Beach Weddings in Florida

Tue. June 15, 2010 Posted in Wedding Photography

Melissa+Chris were married on June 11, 2010 at the Grand Plaza Hotel on St. Pete Beach, FL.   Their wedding was at 10:30 a.m. which was a perfect time for pictures on the beach.  Our gulf coast sunsets are beautiful for late afternoon weddings but in the morning the sky is a deep blue and the water shows off its aqua green color.  Melissa and Chris’s ceremony with that backdrop was absolutely beautiful!  An added bonus was the fantastic light that filled the Presidential Ballroom during the reception…a photographer’s dream.  I’m very much liking morning weddings!

Ricky from Rhythm Makers DJ’s kept everyone on the dance floor.  Most of the bridal party knew each other from college and you could tell that they had done this party thing a few times before.  The gorgeous and delicious cake was created by A Piece of Cake – Tampa.

Here are some of my fav images from their day.

Wedding Guest Signature Books-with a Twist | Tampa Wedding Photographer

Thu. March 4, 2010 Posted in Senior Portraits

When a bride calls Jeff Mason Photography inquiring about wedding photography one of the first things I ask her is if they are considering a engagement photo session.  Engagement photo sessions are meant to be fun, relaxed and casual.  It’s a good time to get pictures of the couple just being themselves and showing their love for one another.  Another benefit of the engagement session is that the couple and I get to know each other and they get a chance to become comfortable with me and being in front of my camera.  This is important because on their wedding day, one of the biggest days in their lives, I am going to be right there with them.  After the engagement photo session I’m not just some guy with a camera in their faces, I’m a friend.

One of the most popular products from the engagement session is our Wedding Guest Signature Book.  This book goes beyond the typical guest book.  Not only does it have 20 pages of awesome pictures from the engagement session but I put questions on the pages that prompt the guests to write more than just their names.  Questions such as “When did you know that Rachel and Gordon were in Love”, or “Give us an idea for a date night”.  I have seen some really fun responses from guests.  These are books that the bride and groom can read and get enjoyment from for years to come.

Here is one of the books that I created for Rachel+Gorden who are going to be married on March 21.
