Landing in melbourne June 5th!! I cannot wait to meet you and experience the city ~ Catch me while you can โค Curious? harperelaine.comMy best friend Wren Valentine is also a Melbourne girlie and the two of us are offering doubles for the month! Find her here: wrenvalentine.com.auย I'm drawn to things that take time--slow cooking, long exposures, songs that don't resolve right away. It takes me a moment to get comfortable, but once Iโm there, Iโm fully there: laughing too hard, flirting mid-sentence, and probably offering you something warm from the kitchen like itโs second nature.ย Iโm a photographer & only shoot film. I've lived in France, Italy, and Mexico City. My Spanish is terrible but my enchiladas are incredible. I cook the way I take photos and fall in loveโwith slowness, obsession, and probably too many notes. I'm an audiophile/ hifi enthusiast and a musician. I'm listening to Joni Mitchell, Ted Greene, Herbie Hancock, Fiona Apple, Nina Simone, Adrianne Lenker and Jeff Buckley. Mozart, Bach, Sondheim, Philip Glass, Patsy Cline if Iโm lonely.ย I grew up backpacking and climbing and still ache for the mountains. I love Ansel Adams prints, electron tubes, and moments that feel like secrets. There's a good chance I'll beat you at Mario Kart.ย When I spend time with someone, I donโt come in with a plan. I just try to be open, a little silly, and completely present. I canโt fake chemistryโI need to feel something real. I love to laugh with and at myself, hopefully you'll join me. I want you to feel comfortable. And when we connect, it should feel easy, electric, and like no one else is in the room.ย If any of this makes sense to you, weโll probably get along.ย Write me kindly. Tell me your name, a little about you, and what youโre hoping for. And pleaseโno surprise calls.
