You can find that session <a href=\"http:\/\/www.rustinmichael.com\/blog\/2009\/05\/20\/julia-thomas-engaged\/\">here<\/a>. Julia and Thomas are finally together after dating long distance between Canada and Orange County. I am so happy for them and wish them the best.<\/p>\n<p>With the beautiful weather, the coast experiencing the best surf in nearly a decade, and the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.usopenofsurfing.com\/site6.aspx\">US Open of Surfing<\/a> in Huntington Beach, you had the perfect storm for horrific traffic. I gave myself twice as much time to get to the Hyatt as it would normally take, even with that I arrived about 2 minutes late as a large Indian wedding party was departing. Julia and and the girls arrived at the Hyatt almost 1 hour late. Good thing we planned 3.5 hours of shooting before the ceremony. Other than the delay from traffic the day went off without any other major problems.<\/p>\n<p>My friend <a href=\"http:\/\/clairebarrett.blogspot.com\/\">Claire Barrett<\/a>, and an amazing photographer, joined me on Saturday as a second shooter. I need to thank Claire for all her help and inspiration throughout the day. I love working with other photographers!\u00a0 I also need to thank my good friend Brian Hamilton at <a href=\"http:\/\/suite-m.com\/\">Suite M<\/a> for hooking me up\u00a0with this amazing couple and wedding.\u00a0 Brian is the owner and main photographer at <a href=\"http:\/\/suite-m.com\/\">Suite M Photography<\/a>.\u00a0 Among being an awesome photographer, he also is an all around great guy.\u00a0 He is the first person I recommend if I am already booked.<\/p>\n<p>Since Julia and many of the girls were stuck in traffic, we started off with Thomas and the guys. There are so many amazing images from the day. Here are some of my favorites.<\/p>\n<p align=\"center\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.rustinmichael.com\/blog_photos\/2009\/0725\/orange_county_wedding_photography_1.jpg\" alt=\"orange
