Take one look at the crazy fun, well-styled Defendorf family and it’s hard not to consider having four kids. Ok, maybe it just makes you want to play in some leaves 😉

With fall in full swing, the Knoxville Botanical Gardens provided a gorgeous golden backdrop for them to play in while I snapped away.

Candid shots like these are perfect little pauses in time. You get to enjoy their beauty now and laugh at the memories later!

I know the Defendorf family will be enjoying these perfect little pauses of each perfectly fun child for years to come.
