Time is always at a premium when photographing sports celebrities. Knowing precisely the task at hand, Krige leans into his favourite way of working, allowing the natural dialogue between his lens and Alex De Minaur’s on-court choreography to unfold. This visual banter between the two has been perfected over several shoots.

“When it comes to capturing De Minaur, his energy and generous character make my job easy and totally enjoyable. He’s one of the best,” - says Krige.

Alicante, near Benidorm, exudes unique vibes with sun-kissed retirees enjoying leisure and cocktail hour. This colourful atmosphere shines through in Krige’s portraits of De Minaur, capturing the tennis star's charm and laid-back demeanour. The vibrant hues and dynamic compositions mirror the sunburnt energy of Alicante’s coast, celebrating the idyllic and hedonistic essence of life in Benidorm.
