<div class="circle">
 <img src="~/Content/Member/MemberPhotos/default_user_icon.jpg" style="border-radius: 50% 50% 50% 50%" />
</div>

That should do it.

Border radius would be the best solution. If you want to support IE8 then you will have a problem because it doesn't support border-radius. So your solution with mask would be more appropiate. Or maybe sometime in the future you will want to use a mask with another effect, other than circle. So here is a solution:

.circle{
width:100px;
height:100px;
position:relative;
}

.circle:after{
content:"";
width:100px;
height:100px;
left:0px;
top:0px;
background-image:url(crop.png);
z-index:5;
}
