Epperson for his exquisite use of light and warm, golden tones. Kemple for getting all those "rad" moments, even if his subjects did start the brahs in beanies fad. Tyler Stableford is also pretty good, as is John Burcham.

Neil Monteith.
His use of colour and composition are both brilliant. His photos 'wow' me every time I look at them. They are consistently better than the pics published in the glossy rags.

Shull, but I'm in the SE and hence, a little biased. I also second the orangeoverhang mention. I'm consistantly blown away.

the climbing community's lucky to have so many incredible photographers... among my favorites are Corey Rich for mindblowing images and Michael Clark for clean and graceful photographs. --maya.

Addenda: I have studied modern climbing photogs pretty extensively, and I retain that Epperson and Kemple are among the best shooting today. Corey Rich is also one of the best of his generation, assuming he is as young as I think he is. He gets extra respect because he, like Zak, puts himself in some pretty extreme situations for photos. Rich and Zak take some great El Cap shots.
But if we're just giving hugs and kisses in general, I also think there are some great photogs you've never heard of, and who are arguably better than some of the elite names. Though I consume catalogs and magazines whole, I am directly influenced by rc.com locals joe and spike. Tis pity they don't submit stuff here anymore. Why is that, boys? :(

Looking through all of those photographers Corey Rich has my vote, he just seems to sum up what climbing is to me in his photos.

The only ones I really know are Ben Moon and Aaron Black, who have both come out with excellent stuff.
Ben's site is:

I find Aaron's website pretty annoying with a slow connection though.
