a part of your daily life here originally from israel town used to be a graphic designer but retrained as a pastry chef when he first came to paris a couple of years ago he was fascinated by the colors textures and geometric patterns of a designer today he's looking for a pink pastry. and this michael brown is filled with rose petal cream leaching and fresh raspberries fish. that are usually takes his photos right outside shops he tries to get into neutral background so the entire focus is on the pastry and the should. upload the photo to his instagram account deserted in paris i think the idea for this paris started by accident when i was exploring the world of paris and i really wanted to remember each. try so i took a photo and just one day i discovered that the cake that i bought was an actual
12:38 am
issues i tried to take a photo people really liked it and from there on it it's all history. almost every day. it's a new shoe pastry. sometimes it looks like a snapshot it looks like something very easy but actually there's a lot of work behind photos created photos in visiting the chefs and visiting places but i always make sure that there is like a variety of places of colors of creation so each day will be different it will give you a totally different aspect an experience of paris. no easy task especially as he waits needs new shoes he now has over two hundred pairs and he's constantly buying more each band needs to be specially colorful he's a regular at this paris boutique and they know exactly what he's looking for.
12:39 am
my love for shoes started way before back when i was living in tel aviv. as a graphic designer i always had this appeal for very graphic and call for shoes so i was collecting them and when i came to paris i discovered there's like more colors and more shape so it's just group with dessert in paris his latest purchase is immediately turned into a photo. you know knows lots of pastry chefs in paris who provide him with cakes blanche is one of them child used to bake his own pastries but now he focuses solely on creating photos by instagram that's where brownish first saw his work. for the so this is. smart you know. we were thinking he is doing something new you know because he's not only thinking picture of kate and get the idea to. take with a sense of truth and i said yeah like you know his first mango

pastry soon appears on towns instagram account matched with yet another new pair of shoes. recently topless tees and patisseries book featuring the best of the seven hundred plus fun times. i think the cakes there are always more graphic or more different would get more attention. for example. i had. my phone and that one like crazy or the rubik's cube bites illegal so it's always like you fish if create something that's a little different and something that people are not used to see it will go through the roof but they think like a usually people are so happy to see creations from paris so i can say that most pictures are considered successful. pastries and shoes clearly a winning combination.
