Apple’s new iPhone 7 Plus ad will make you fall in love with falling in love.

The new minute-long ad showcases Portrait mode on the iPhone 7 Plus but it’s really about a couple’s romantic stroll through the city while “Sing to Me” by Walter Martin and Karen O plays through the background.

Portrait Mode debuted exclusively on the iPhone 7 Plus last year. The feature uses the iPhone’s dual-lens cameras to create an blurred background effect so that subject’s are more isolated. Apple’s expected to include the feature on the next iPhone as well, only the company may reposition the camera lenses so that they’re aligned vertically.
