Love + Brain

...is the moniker of me, Courtney Arcese (that's moi in the photo to the right with my wonderful husband)! I'm born and raised in Minnesota, but I currently call New York City my home. You can find me walking around my little neighborhood in Brooklyn with my feisty chihuahua, Diesel (who is usually the main subject on my instagram feed). I love creating videos. When I'm not filming weddings and families, I like to build stop-motion films, like this one.  While living in Hong Kong at the end of 2011, I produced an original web-based travel series called The Vagabond Project, which is comprised of 42 webisodes featuring Millana Snow of Project Runway (note: If you haven't been to Hong Kong, GO! It's amazing!).  I cannot get enough of traveling, I'm a wanderlust at heart... One of my favorite trips was with my husband visiting Thailand.

If you enjoy wine, chocolate and puppies we will most definitely get along! 

My goal is to create beautiful videos that capture the true essence of a bride & groom's personal style and most importantly, their love for each other. If you're looking for a wedding/engagement videographer, I'm always open to meeting with couples to answer any questions you may have! :)

I use a DSLR camera (Canon 5D m3) for it's cinematic performance. If you have any questions, just ask (ca@lovebrainfilms.com)!
