it.\u00a0 It says &#8220;loving family&#8221; to me and I want to make an album of it and put it on my shelf and pretend it&#8217;s <em>my<\/em> family.\u00a0 Poor <a href=\"http:\/\/www.jamiesmithphotography.com\/blog\/\" target=\"_blank\">Jamie<\/a> has been dying to see something, ANYTHING from her shoot and I just keep telling her &#8220;don&#8217;t worry&#8211;they&#8217;re awesome!!&#8221;\u00a0 (She&#8217;s a lot nicer to her clients than I am to mine about getting sneak peeks up, I think!!)<\/p>\n<p>I have friends who photograph a lot of photographers and I&#8217;ve always been jealous of them (a) because it&#8217;s a giant compliment when another photographer asks you to do the honor of photographing their family and (b) because photographers know the tricks.\u00a0 They know how to dress, they know how to behave&#8230;they know how to BRING IT to the session to make sure it rocks.<\/p>\n<p>Jamie and Brandon BROUGHT IT.\u00a0 From coordinating everyone&#8217;s outfits around Mallory&#8217;s adorably colorful sweater, to setting the tone for the shoot by being super loving and fun&#8230;they were perfect.<\/p>\n<p>Me?\u00a0 I was a nervous wreck.\u00a0 It has been a long time since I&#8217;ve been nervous before a shoot or wedding, but I tell you what&#8211;photographing a photographer is scary!\u00a0 And then editing the photos is even worse because every time I saw a photo I would normally just LOVE, I loved it and then I critiqued it for what another photographer might find wrong with it and decided that I totally suck.\u00a0 :P\u00a0 I don&#8217;t think I&#8217;m cut out to photograph photographers&#8230;unless I want to have to start dying my hair a lot more often!\u00a0 So to all you photographers who make it a habit, I tip my hat to you!<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-3213 aligncenter\"
