Photographer Alain Laboile knows the power of capturing a moment in time. In his work, we see evidence of the wild abandon of youth while simultaneously acknowledging its preciousness. Laboile stated that later in his career, he “pointed his lens towards his growing family which became his major subject.”
Laboile comments about his work, stating its goal of “addressing human nature and allowing the viewer to enter my world and reflect on their own childhoods.” The photographer seems to have a wealth of material to shoot as the playful antics of his six children are revealed in the series titled ‘La Famille.’
Seems like an obvious place to start: at home. Beautiful pictures. These themes are timeless.
