CMS for photographer?

For all CMS — Wordpress. Just smoke it correctly, and if you have imagination you can do such things, WP c at first sight is simply not capable of :)

I would recommend wordpress.
Why?
1. There are many free and paid themes for WordPress a for galleries and/or photoblog.
2. Installing a few plugins you can provide a nice lightbox to view your photos users.
3. To configure the voting and ratings to your images for your users.
4. Variations of modules for creating galleries. Who you like more.
