Has your photog friend offered to shoot your wedding? If so, I would accept her offer and not worry about uneven sides.
Personally, I'd have her be a bridesmaid. Don't you want pictures of her there with you in your wedding and be there to enjoy it with you as a friend? Although I do see what you're saying about how you love her photography style too! But at least since your a photographer, you'll know exactly what else to look for and what you like and dislike if you had to book a different one?
If she's a BM will she still take photos during the reception? That kind of sounds like the best of both worlds to me. My sister is also a professional photographer and I didn't want her to be the photographer at the wedding. Because she wants to gift me and FH at least some wedding photos she'll be taking photos during the reception and for all the formal shots which she will not be in (FH's family, etc etc). I don't know if that's an option for you.

Ok so I have 2 different bridesmaid issues that I can't decide between. I've thought about this for over a month, & have no clue what to do:
1. My friend who I've known for about 4 years, maybe 5 & she's like my sister, she calls me her sister & says I'm family to our friends. I also consider her my sister, she's awesome! Ok anyways, I want her to be in my wedding. But I can't decide if I want her to be my photographer or my bridesmaid! I'm a photographer & she's been my co-photographer at a few weddings & her work is awesome. She'd take all the pics for free & I wouldn't have to worry about the quality at all. She shoots the same style as me (or really close to it) & that's the photo style I like. She takes a LOT of photos & I'd get to edit them all as she doesn't have editing, so that will be a lot of work, but totally worth it cause I get to do whatever I want to my pics & know how to :). On the other hand, she's like my sister & would love to have her as my bridesmaid. I've already talked to her & she said she would like to be my bridesmaid, but if it helped me more, she'd be my photographer. She's completely fine with being either & would not be upset & she's happy with whatever I decide.
2. So if above friend is my photographer, than I have another place for a bridesmaid because I need 6 or it will look wierd. I would like one of my 2 roommates to be my bridesmaid, but who do I ask? 1 of my roomies I've known longer & am closer to. We've gone to camp together & have more in depth convos & she cares about me, wants to know how I'm doing, how my day was, etc... but the other roomie is helping with my wedding A LOT since she's helping me plan things, getting really involved, she's making my wedding cake free cause she loves to do that, plus she's helping with arrangements & doing my flowers too! I'm 100% sure she could do my entire wedding with no problem, she is a pro. She's also my friend & I'm not considering her out of guilt, but because wow she's been an incredible help!
I know, ultimately, I need to decide. But what would you do?
Oh & I just want to throw this in there, my name is Sarah & 1 of my bridesmaids is Sarah & the last bridesmaid may be Sarah. I've always said my name is too common :P. hehe
