Smith was taken off the field on a stretcher and was treated for a concussion at East Alabama Medical Center before being released Saturday night.
"For those of you asking if I got 'the' shot, here it is," Smith posted on Twitter. "The last thing my camera and I saw before being tackled."
Smith included Herrien in the tweet, saying, "I hope you LOVE this photo."
Herrien responded to Smith on Twitter by saying, "YOU'RE THE BEST. I knew it would be a good picture."
Smith is a Heritage High School and University of Georgia graduate who takes pictures for Georgia's athletic department. The Chattanooga Times Free Press has used several of her photos this season through permission of the school.
