Today on Behind the Bloom, I’m joined by my long-time friend and sound mixer, Jean-Yves Münch. He has been with me since I began filming way back in 2006…nearly 20 years. He is a Frenchman and thus was the perfect guest for our French Inspired “Life in Bloom” Episode – Fleur de la Vie.
Jean-Yves and I talk French inspiration and creation and also create beautiful bouquets of flowers, recalling fond memories. I hope you enjoy getting to know my French friend and learning more about his history, French influences and of course…flowers!

My Flower Friend, Frenchman and Sound Mixer – Jean Yves-Münch

I’m proud to introduce you to my wonderful flower friend Jean-Yves Münch – as a French man – I want to know all about his personal and cultural feelings about flowers and share his amazing career as a sound guy with you- here on Life in Bloom. I want to share some of his amazing sound stories… and also ask him about how the French (and European) Culture differs from ours- when it comes to flowers!

Among other Talents- Jean-Yves is a wonderful flower arranger…

Jean-Yves has been a part of my Video career- since 2006- when I started creating a Web-based TV Show- for ‘sliver casting’ (broadcasting niche content to a sliver of the population)… he was on the Very Production we did way back then… it’s nearly been 20 years… I know Jean-Yves enjoys working with me and my crew- and I think he also enjoys the opportunity we provide of flowers- for our crew following the filming schedule. hehehe!

Jean-Yves also joins me for #flowercocktailhour- where I create and we enjoy- the “Sidecar”

I think it’s especially interesting to hear about how other people that grew up in different parts of the world- experienced flowers for the first time- or what their unique and individual memories of flowers may be… especially when it’s based in the City of Lights! Jean-Yves also helps me understand- (and better yet pronounce) the French saying
“Raison d´etre and I even share a story about my flower friend and famous White House Florist- Laura Dowling- and her flower advice to “Celebrate Beauty and Live Fully in the Present”… it’s a wonderful tradition with the french and flowers!
