Wedding Photography Girl | Los Angeles, Orange County Destination Wedding Photographer Jolynne bio picture

Wedding Photography Girl

Hello! My name is Jolynne, from Jolynne Photography. I'm a creative wedding photojournalist. I live on a small farm in Hemet, CA with my husband and assistant photographer Joey, our four kids, my folks and lots of animals!

In addition to being a destination wedding photographer in Los Angeles, Orange County and San Diego, I also shoot engagement photography, family portraits, senior pictures, band photography and my own fun, fine art stuff.

My style of photography is fun, creative, detail-oriented. I like to make people feel at ease during their wedding photography or portrait session.

This is my blog. I love comments and subscriptions...so come back soon and come back often :)

Orange County Wedding Photography – Michal & Tony

This was so much fun for me! This is my college buddy, Michal! I was so happy that she asked me to shoot her wedding.  She and her hubby, Tony, got married in Dana Point, CA at the OC Sailing and Events Center. So, so pretty. Aren’t they cute?

My good friend, Andrew O’Neill, was my second photographer for the day. These next two shots are his! Look at Michal and Tony’s boys! Are they just the cutest!?

Michal’s beautiful dress.

Everyone was so laid back and fun. There was lots of laughter :)

Another Andrew O’ Neill image. I love it!

Proud mom and dad. Dr. Webb was my college professor and he and Judy are long time friends of the family :) It was so great to see them!

Curtis Templeton presided along with Michal’s Dad. See what I mean? Lots o’ laughs!!

It was a college reunion for me!! These were all friends of mine at Pacific Christian College! So fun!!

And yet, another special detail to this wedding for me. Chris Gillette played at MY wedding! He is an amazing guitarist and a long time friend of the family as well.

I was so happy I got to use this at this wedding! This is my Bridal Survival Kit I bring to every wedding. I was noticing that every wedding I shot, it was inevitable that I would hear, “Does anyone have a bobby pin?” “Safety pin?” “Tide to Go?” etc… so…my HUBBY, and Rainmaker at Jolynne Photography, created this little kit to provide for ANY needs a bride could have! Bobby pins, safety pins, sewing supplies, nail files, Tide to Go, socks, gel, tampons, band-aids, nail clippers, wash cloth, etc…!! I thought it was brilliant. And sure enough…there was an unwanted tag…and my scissors were used! Thanks, Joey!!

Yay!! Congrats, Tony and Michal! I am so happy I was able to shoot your wedding! It was great to see you and everyone! Hugs!

Los Angeles Engagement Photography – Lindsay and Chad

Lindsay is a cute pinup model beauty with gorgeous red hair and sweet tattoos. Chad is a policeman with the LAPD. When we met for their engagement photos, we just HAD to have some dress-up fun. I love that they were up for anything!

Now that we did something fun and flirty, it was time for something a little more…um…

Here are some images you might see on a vintage pulp novel cover.

And then onto some country cuteness.

I think they are just the cutest. And sweet, too! :)

What a fun shoot! So fun to step outside the norm. Thanks, Linsday and Chad, for havin’s some fun! It was so great to meet you!

Los Angeles Engagement Photography – Leslie & Eric

I had the pleasure of photographing Leslie and Eric at the beautiful Getty Villa in Malibu, CA. They love the arts, so they thought this would be the perfect spot…and it was! It was gorgeous. And what a sweet couple they are! Handsome, too, don’t ya think?

Thank you so much, Leslie and Eric! Continue in your sweet love for each other. Hugs!

Temecula Family Portraits – The Rider Family

I love this family! Meet the Riders! Tony and Heather Tietz (far right) have been our close friends for 15 years. Heather and I were roommates in college and Joey and Tony traveled the world together with the ROCK and ROLL sensation, Skypark! :) I truly love this family. Mr. and Mrs. Rider have raised a beautiful family. Can you tell who’s related? Yep…the mamas of all those cutie babies :) We met in Temecula for some photo family fun :)

The cousins!

Proud mom and dad.

Could you just kiss those little faces?!

Thank you Riders for a fun time! I love you all!

Laguna Beach Engagement Photography – Jennifer & Oz

Meet Jennifer and Oz! My college friend, Michal, referred Jennifer to me, and I am so grateful! What a LOVELY couple! They were wonderful. Jennifer’s smile is absolutely gorgeous. We met in Laguna Beach and braved the rocks and waves to get some beautiful shots. You wouldn’t even know it, but the beach was crowded! I ducked and turned to hide children behind them in the shots :)  We had a great time. Thanks so much, Jennifer and Oz, it was so great to meet you! Hugs…

Hollywood Fashion Photography – Vessels Fall 2010 Collection

I have to say, this is one of my favorite shoots, yet. And it was absolutely new for me. My brother, Joey Grana (Scout L.A.), asked me to shoot his and Azita Sheridan’s ( Matter Yoga), new Vessels Fall Collection 2010.  Rebecca Schwartz is our gorgeous and sweet model here. And her stunning hair and make-up by none other than the amazing, Kevin Posey. We had such a great time together…everyone of us doing our parts. It really was a great team, and so fun to be a part of that. They were looking for a more natural lit setting, which you know I will always prefer…so we set out around Hollywood BLVD and found some fun walls…Hollywood building walls :) We found em and got to work. It was a perfect day and I am excited to share these with you. Make sure and check out Vessels Fall Collection 2010 coming out in July! The facebook page is new so become a fan to get your updates :)
