All three pics: Phidippus cf. otiosus.
Range: "Southeastern U.S. from Texas to Maryland, most abundant in Florida" - G. B. Edwards 2004, Revision of the Jumping Spiders of the Genus Phidippus, (Araneae: Salticidae).

Nice images. There is no need to compare to; they are P. otiosus. An adult male and a female.
Native to the eastern US as mentioned above.

BTW, what camera setup, etc, did you use for the photographs? Nice depth of field.

I used a Nikon Coolpix 4300. Not a profitool and itīs a "old" device but i think the photos are ok.
