Jacksonville Family Photographer
My Jacksonville family photo sessions are for families who want images that feel natural, connected, and true to who they are.
Sessions are relaxed, leaving room for movement, laughter, and the in-between moments that matter most: whether that’s a newborn at home, a maternity session by the water, or a family on the beach.
If you’re drawn to timeless, authentic images, you’re in the right place.
Real Moments. Honest Connection
Hi…I’m Teresa Geraghty!
Before photography became my full-time work, I spent 15 years as a high school English teacher, where storytelling was always at the center of what I did. After my first daughter was born, I picked up my camera with the goal of preserving the fleeting, everyday moments that were passing by too quickly.
I’ve been photographing families and newborns for over 13 years, creating images that help you remember what this season felt like, not just how it looked.
I work in a relaxed, gently guided way that leaves room for real connection, movement, and the in-between moments that matter most.
When you look back on your images, I want you to remember the closeness, the love, and the way your family fit together right then.

For families who Want Natural & Timeless Photos
TO ALL THE BUSY MOMS OUT THERE,
I see you. I know the mix of emotions that comes with raising a family. We celebrate each milestone with excitement, yet there’s also a quiet awareness of how quickly this season is passing.
I know the deep love and pride you have for your family, and I want to help you hold onto this chapter — so you can return to these moments and remember not just how it looked, but how it felt.
They Won't be Little Forever....
You don’t need to know how to pose.
You don’t need everything to go perfectly.
You don’t need to have a plan.
I’ll offer gentle guidance when helpful and space when something natural is unfolding.
Most clients tell me they’re surprised by how easy the experience feels.
You’ll walk away with a handful of classic, frame-worthy portraits, along with a full gallery that reflects this season honestly—the big moments and the quiet ones in between.
SO, Let’s freeze this Moment
AN easy & Stress Free photo experience
Photography for this season of Parenthood
I’ve been a Jacksonville family photographer for over 13 years. As a working mom myself, I know how precious your time is, and I’ve designed my process with that in mind.
I understand how meaningful these images will become — and I also know that busy parents need an experience that feels smooth, seamless, and easy from start to finish.
My goal is to create space for you to slow down, feel present, and see the beauty and love in this phase of life — through photographs that grow more meaningful with time.
The Experience
After booking a session with me, you can expect a personalized experience and a simple process.
01.
Thoughtful Planning
You will complete a questionnaire. I’ll take time to learn about your family, your children, and what matters most to you in this season. This helps each session feel personal and unhurried from the start.
02.
Complete Styling support
No need to worry about what to wear. I have got you covered! You’ll receive guidance on outfit choices, color palettes, and coordination, along with access to my client closet if you’d like. My goal is to make planning for your Jacksonville family photos feel simple, not overwhelming.
03.
Enjoy A Fun Evening With Your Loved Ones
I want your session to be a unique opportunity to bond with your family. I’ll offer gentle direction while creating space for real connection, movement, and laughter.
04.
Beautifully Edited Images
Each image is thoughtfully & artistically edited with attention to skin tones, color, and details like stray hairs and blemishes. You’ll receive images that reflect your family naturally and honestly.

What Clients Are Saying
Consistent 5 star Ratings on Google“I have been doing a photoshoot with Teresa at least once a year since my youngest daughter was one-years-old. I hope to leave yearly albums documenting our precious memories together to my girls when they are older, to look back on. Teresa is brilliant with young children, and captures the most candid and scenically beautiful photographs, in the most gorgeous locations!”
— Cat T.After recently. moving to the Ponte Vedra area, I stumbled upon Teresa's portfolio of work and couldn't be happier with my choice of choosing her as my family's photographer. Not only was she very kind, but she was also great with a rambunctious toddler and made the whole experience feel very natural and fun! We could not be happier with the results and look forward to working with her again!
— Monica STeresa is a great photographer! She has taken newborn and family pictured for both of my boys and they will be photos that I cherish forever. She is so good with our kids, especially our toddler who is constantly on the move. The quality of her work is amazing! 10/10 would recommend!!
