{real couple} Mia + Jason’s Ybor City Engagement

by Erika on May 11, 2011

Mia and Jason’s engagement story is sweet as can be ~ the perfect match for their photos in Ybor City (a historic neighborhood near Tampa) by Angela Gaspar Photography! Jason proposed last September at Eggmont Key, a small island off of Pinellas Park, Florida. To reach the island, the couple took a ferry. During the ferry ride, a pelican flying overhead left Jason with an unwelcome surprise. But the old saying about birds’ “gifts” and good luck must be true, since Mia happily accepted his proposal. Their e-shoot took place in January on the trolley as well as some other spots in Ybor City.

    We had a great time posing for you Angela! Ybor City is a pretty interesting place when you’re just walking around semi-aimlessly. We’ve spent our share of time there and yet we still found some really cool spots that’s we’d never noticed before – like the ghost diner, the sign looks fresh, but is it ever actually open for business?? Remind me to never again turn my back on the fine lady I’m engaged to, she’s sneaky! (Worst of all she thinks she’s funny :) Thank you so much for the amazing and unforgettable shots we got that day!
