- About Me:
- Renowned photographer and traveler Ingetje Tadros began a global photographic sojourn at seventeen. Leaving behind her small hometown of Bleiswijk in the Netherlands, she ambitiously set out to travel the planet. Over the course of 30 years of regular travel, she has visited more than 40 countries across six continents, all the while capturing striking images of the world’s tribal people, and of lives and places that exist in relative obscurity. Her photography offers the viewer genuine moments of humanity and stunning expressive form.
Whether she is photographing people in a market in a village in India, or during a festival of the Mowanjum tribal community in Western Australia, Ingetje is always fully engaged with the people she encounters. The viewer never has the feeling she is pickpocketing people’s private sacred moments to enthrall us with mere cultural novelty. Her photographs neither intend to shock nor illicit sympathy; therefore, we can visually engage with Tadros’ subjects without the distortions imposed by a disparaging fog of pity. Through her great skill and sensitivity, she enhances our perceptions and engages us with the unfamiliar, enabling us to cast off our engrained, divisive tendencies – the formidable mental barriers that alienate “us” (the urban, economically-advantaged) from “them” (indigenous people and the world’s chronically poor and vulnerable).
In March of 2011, Ingetje published her first book, Tribal Ethiopia - a testament of her passion for documenting tribal people and championing issues of social justice. The book’s 286 photos document the indigenous tribes of the Omo River Valley and their plight as people threatened with the of loss of their ancestral homeland and economic livelihood to modern development; a proposed massive hydroelectric plant project would eventually flood their valley.
Over the course of her career she has been a volunteer photographer for the Amsterdam World Museum and a travel consultant for Nouvelles Frontieres. Ingetje currently freelances for Dutch-based Word Portraits, (World-Portraits will soon be available at Corbis) and the Western Australian, a Perth newspaper. She is also a prodigious contributor to world-renowned Getty Images and recently signed a contract with Aurora. She currently lives in Broome in Western Australia where she and her Egyptian-born husband own and run a Middle Eastern restaurant that also serves as an informal gallery for her work.

Onno de Rover said… Ik Doe eigenlijk geen prive-safaries. Als ik die al doe dan is dat met vrienden en met m'n eigen auto.
Ik werk voor lodges en camps als wandel-gids en dat betekend dat ik dan, voor bepaalde tijd, daar ook gestationeerd ben. Ik heb er geen ervaring mee maar het lijkt me niet aantrekkelijk om met iemand drie weken op stap te gaan met mensen die ik niet ken. Vindt drie dagen lang genoeg.

- Hoi Ingetje,
Frank Janssens is een vriend van jou hier op VII. Die heeft mij toen dit contact door gegeven: info@finegraphic.nl

Hoi Ingetje, sorry dat het ff wat geduurd heeft met mijn reactie. Toevalligerwijze was ook mijn laptop kapot en heb ik ff moeten wachten voordat ik een nieuwe kon kopen (heb dan toch maar een Mac gekocht) en daarnaast heeft het even geduurd voordat ik doorhad hoe e.e.a. werkt..... (ben niet zo'n handleiding-mens)
Ik heb even gekeken naar jouw website en die zag er goed uit...... Ik weet aleen niet of photoshelter iets voor jouw kwaliteit foto's is. Denk dat ze meer tot hun recht komen als je door een professional je website laat maken. Ik zit daar ook over na te denken maar zit nog een beetje tegen de kosten aan te hikken. Er is een Nederlander die hele mooie dingen maakt waarmee ik in contact ben gekomen via Frank Janssens.... info@finegraphic.nl
Groetjes Onno
