hmm, first off you're on the right track. A wide-open aperture will give you a shalllow depth of field (blurred background). And, it
s a common misconception that the lens size also plays a role, that telephotos will give a shallow depth of field. This isn't so.But, in this case I'm not sure what the issue would be. Possibly that your lens isn't "fast" enough to stop down to provide the desired effect.
When you're shooting wide open what is your aperture setting?
The only other thing that I can recommend is that you fill more of the frame with your subject and also put more distance between your subject and your BG.
Hope that helps.
