Corinne Day
I read last weekend that Corinne Day has passed away. I was aware of some of her work in the 90's with Kate Moss, and the subsequent backlash to do with the creation of the 'waif' and associations with drug use and eating disorders. I can understand why the media would like to perceive Day's work in this way, but I think she was more about portraying what women really looked like, not producing over-polished and over-edited images. I really like a lot of her photography, the images she creates are powerful and full of emotion, particularly her 'Diary' series from 2000.

Really like the collection you've uploaded it shows the variation in how lighting can trigger a different emotion.
