International Site Profiles: We Take Pictures Too


In an opinion piece posted last week on the limitations of access to crowdfunding projects, we made an argument for taking the initiative to explore sites that promote photographers from countries and cultures less frequently seen. We're following that post with a series of short profiles that will collectively provide a starting point for this exploration of international blogs, online magazines and pages. We began on Tuesday with suggesting a look at Kilele. Today we're following with We Take Pictures Too.

Like Kilele, We Take Pictures Too is a Tumblr page. Created in January 2011, it focuses on images made by contemporary Indonesian photographers. It was last updated in December - we hope the page will continue to grow. In the meantime, the site's archive hosts around 150 images with site links provided for each photographer. An "Ask Me Anything" page allows readers a way to send questions.

On the "Links & Blogrolls" page on the personal site of Kurniadi Widodo, the creator of We Take Pictures Too, there is a list of many additional photographer sites and blogs to explore. Kurniadi Widodo can be followed on Twitter here.
