After beating out Ed Sheeran by being the #1 pre-order on iTunes, Gabriel and Jess Conte chose Spirinity Productions to direct,

produce the story, produce the video and edit their very first music video as a couple and brand.

Filming the Video

Filming “Can’t Help Falling in Love” with Gabriel and Jess Conte was indeed a magical experience with a truly magical couple! Desiring to model a simple, romantic duet with grand piano accompaniment and ballroom dancing amid a starry tapestry, we built our set in a studio in Los Angeles, which included a stage, black curtains, the aforementioned piano, and nothing less than 10,000 twinkle lights!

Many of the Conte’s fans are aware of their fairytale-like love story, and we wanted to capture that visually as a kind of dance for this cover of a truly classic romance song. Gabriel and Jess worked with one of our choreographers to bring physical expression and movement to this beautiful song! Combining that on set with their elegant looks designed by celebrity stylist Brandon, we were able to transform these YouTubers into a real-life prince and princess dancing at a ball for two set amidst the stars!

In YouTube videos, Jess has consistently showcased her piano talent, and we wanted to give that a nod in this video as well as a set up for the dance. Additionally, here’s a fun behind the scenes fact: Gabriel actually learned how to play this song on the piano as well in case we wanted to reverse the roles! To say these two are wholly dedicated to their craft is a drastic understatement!

We had another surprise bonus at this video shoot: the Conte’s had just adopted their dog, Milo! And, boy, is he the cutest little puppy. His presence on set was certainly another highlight for our team while shooting!

As always, we thoroughly enjoyed creating this idyllic video with Jess and Gabriel Conte, and we can’t wait to work with them again! They truly are magical!
