Reese Witherspoon cordially invited her niece to a day on set.
And Abby James Witherspoon was happy to bring fans along. After all, as the Loyola University film production student shadowed her aunt during filming, she gave a glimpse into the outing.
“I always love learning from professionals, especially when it’s my Aunt Reese,” the 19-year-old explained in a June 16 video shared to Reese’s Instagram. “I also loved learning from not only my aunt, but also the amazing crew of women that she surrounds herself with.”
Abby—the eldest daughter of Reese’s brother John Witherspoon—shared clips of the Legally Blonde alum getting her hair and makeup touched up between filming, her aunt’s dog running around and crew working through the day.
“We even celebrated a producer’s birthday with cupcakes,” she explained with the dessert in hand. “It’s one of the best parts about being on set, you will never go hungry, and sometimes, flowers and dogs. I had such a great day. Thanks, Aunt Reese!”
