This is a photographer that i found to be of Particular relevance to my current project. Andrzej Maciejewski is a Canadian Photographer that had his Garden of Eden series of images take off quite well. His Garden of Eden series of images make a statement about where the things we eat come from. I'm going to leave it at that.
Link to his Website gallery.

Emily Peacock
Emily Peacock is a Houston TX based Photographer. Now i found her while looking for photographs of food that are visually similar to my own work. While they are visually similar to my images, they don't try to take a stance and promote a concept as much as mine. But they are still of interest due to the quality of the work.

Yosuke Yamahata
This is a Photographer i stumbled across just a short bit ago. He's famous for documenting the aftermath of Nagasaki, Japan. His work is the only real documentation of Nagasaki at that point in time. But that's enough talk. Let's let his images speak. It's unfortunate, but there's a severe lack of high quality images available in the inter webs.
Osamu Kanemura
Osamu Kanemura is a Japanese born and based street photographer. He was born in 1964. He's has gained some renown in Japan, but he's still a relatively unknown on the international art scene. Now he's a street photographer like i mentioned before. But he take it more literal then the some of his peers. In his images the street themselves take control of the frame, and the human form becomes secondary to the chaotic nature of the streets. When viewing the following images, take not of how chaotic and texture packed these images are.

Mark Menjivar: We are what we Eat.
Mark Menjivar is a San Antonio, TX based photographer. He's most well
known for his series "We are what we eat". This series is a portrait
series, but using the contents of an individuals refrigerator as a
replacement for a humans face. This is one of the Photographers that i
found while researching for my book proposal. His work and my work both
share the same core concepts (to a certain extent).

Desktop Crashed
Well Folks, My desktop crashed. I'm off to install Gentoo. It should take 3-6 hours. Not sure why i posted this here.
Eugène Atget
Eugène Atget is a photographer that i just learned about a short while ago. Eugène was a French photographer that was an early pioneer in street and documentary photography. While he wasn't really known during his lifetime outside of his architectural work, (mostly due to his personality) after his death his work was brought to light and he is now considered one of the early masters of photography.
