A camera is just an expensive paperweight if you don’t use it…

camera on fire
This was an incredibly difficult shot to pull off thank you to the amazing Ms. Francesca Eastwood for nearly catching herself on fire twice! Jordon I love you sorry I was screaming…

When was the last time you used a camera?

    Hellooooo Mr Shields. I adore your work – phenomenal. I hope you don’t mind I used you as an example in an assignment. I got good marks for it, though :)

    Such a beautiful shot. I love your work so much.

    I used my camera this morning changing the batteries and taking some test shots so I can go out this evening.
    Is it weird that I still get that rush when I go out and take some fun shots?

    Oh, Tyler, anything you shoot becomes a masterpiece and all the efforts are put into this masterpiece become worthy when I see such a result! The photo is just amazing! I will never get tired of admiring your endless talent of turning impossible into possible!
    I don’t actually remember the last time I used a camera like this one, maybe a couple of years ago… But this so true “A camera is just an expensive paperweight if you don’t use it…”. And a camera in the right hands makes the result incomparably sensational! Keep doing what you’re doing! Your art keeps me moving forward!

    The last time that I used a camera was last night. I’m taking a photo class and have been continusly looking to you for inspiration. Do you have any advice for an aspiring photographer??

    I majored in Photography for a semester and Advertising the semester before that. When I look at your work, it makes me want to go back so badly. But I realized that Photography isn’t the right career path for me. I love it, there’s no doubt about that but not as a career. Your work inspires me to keep at it though. I love your ideas and concepts and the lighting and the location. Everything just so perfect for your subject matter.

    The last time I picked up my camera was for my final project last May. I did the Seven Deadly Sins and it was my best photo set and the one I was most proud of. You inspire me to pick it back up again whether it’s for candid shooting or actually planning a photo shoot.

    Using something that creates art as the focus of a piece of art. Love it.
    Taking the chance of being caught on fire. Even better.

    Just used my Polaroid last week to take a picture of my 35mm.

    I bet that was a hard shot. And great admiration for the model :) I once myself almost had my hair burned during the session, know the pain. Keep up the good work. Love your style Mr Shields ;)

    I try to use my camera as much as possible, which unfortunately isn’t nearly as often as I’d like. Last weekend I went to the beach with my dog and shot some random stuff. It’s always exciting for me to see the results, good or bad.

    The lighting in this shot is incredible. Well done sir
