back in lisbon & cascais calling

Rather than just staying in the city, we based the second part of the shoot in and around Cascais - often referred to as the Portuguese Riviera. As always, some of the best moments came when things didn’t go to plan. On day two, while exploring the area with Eduardo - who many of you may recognise from our previous Lisbon shoot - we stumbled across what we initially thought was a beach hut. It turned out to be a small souvenir shop filled with shells, trinkets and postcards, owned by a local man named Antero. We’ve always loved the idea of photographing someone older - someone with real character and a face that tells a story. So, taking a chance, we asked Eduardo to translate while we introduced ourselves to Antero and explained the idea. We were stoked that he said yes.

We asked him to throw on one of our quarter-zips and pose for a few shots outside his shop. It was completely unplanned, but it quickly became one of our favourite moments from the trip - and one of our favourite images from the campaign.

The rest of the day was spent exploring the shoreline, climbing across rocks and shooting against the dramatic coastal landscape. The rugged scenery created the perfect contrast against the clean lines and relaxed styling of the collection.

One of the most memorable locations was Boca do Inferno. With waves crashing against the cliffs and the Atlantic stretching endlessly beyond, it was a powerful setting that perfectly captured the raw energy of the coastline and brought something special to the shoot.
