Sally Mann
Sally Mann's portraits really stand out to me. I like her use of DOF and lighting. Her subjects are always young, and although they mostly look beautiful and angelic, she uses a different approach than most photographers. Her photographs are mostly candid I find, or have a candid sense to them, her subjects never smile or seem to know that the camera is there, they are naturally posed.\
Her backgrounds/sceneries usually consist of something that would be realistic to the subject. She often took pictures near and around the water. Her lighting is very soft and natural. Her subjects are 90% of the time her children, or young adults. A lot of the time they are photographed naked or with barely any clothes on. Her shallow depth of field is very nice in her photos, I think depending on the background she uses 5.6 or lower.
