Amber sun rays tumbled between stone, the wind light and welcoming. A collective sigh of relief, nod to the waiter and toast to a job well done. Saúde.
Our Summer ‘24 shoot was a whirlwind of late deliveries, stunner views and epic on-foot escapes to the hills. Our trusted trio of Tom on stills, Amon on video, and Jess on styling took it all in their stride, keeping the vibes high all trip long.
With Madeira locals Maria, Joackim, Erandy and Viktoria leading the charge, we were dealt a solid hand of sun rays and warm temps pushing us oceanside…
No stage, costume or props needed, this was turning into a trademark Passenger adventure. Road trippin’ and falling into a steady rhythm led by shutter sounds and shared laughs. Tom called in a huddle, all hands in, ‘Made To Roam’ on three, let’s get sh*t done.
“The mountain roads were so beautiful, with agapanthus plants in flower around every corner.”
Jess, Stylist
"Fish freshly caught by Joackim, cooked with pineapple juice over the fire in an iron skillet. Super tasty."
"Eucalyptus sweets were a mega little additions to the long drives over, around and through the mountains..."
Amon, Videographer
“Whilst up in the mountains searching for sunset, we stumbled across loads of cows and calves in the road. They weren’t in a hurry to get out of our way, and since we were at cloud level, they emerged from the mist which was quite surreal!”
Tom, Photographer
“Refreshed and restored after a swim in the Atlantic.”
"We watched the sunset over the sea at a small bar in Paul Do Mar with a jug of sangria. A dream way to end the trip."
