You mean photos of shadows? Photos where shadows play a big part? Silhouettes?

Do you even mean photos in the first place?

If you can clear this up it'd be nice, cheers.

Pretty much anyone not doing macro photography will have shadows of some form, with the only other exception being people using ringlights for model photography. For specialised placement of shadows, check out some skate photographers using off-camera flashes :D

I know there are artists who construct sculptures out of objects ( found or otherwise) with the intent on creating a differet image through its projecte shadow. I dont suppose this is for the sake of photography specfically but the images were amazing.

Ive had thoughts of pursuing natural occurances like this with an emphasis of the shape of on objects shadow in order to make myself more discerning to the environment.

but in short my first thought is of such art mentioned above.
