Like any good father with a yen for cameras, French photographer Alain Laboile takes hundreds of photos of his six children. But unlike your average parent, he turns all that play magic into something a little more real. The photographs in Laboile’s series Reflexion autour du bassin, which we spotted over at My Modern Met, are like fairy tales coming to life, filled as they are with swarthy beasts, girls with wings, and magic tricks, with lovely French children at the center. After the jump, check out a few of our favorites from the series, and then be sure to head here for many more of Laboile’s beautiful photographs.
