Shannon says, "I love making it look fun and expressionistic . I do my best to capture that moment in surfing where everything stands still and instant bliss overcomes you. These experiences are burned into my mind when all the colors of the water and surroundings are so intense, and my senses are overwhelmed by the taste of salt water, the sky, sounds of rushing water, joy, and pulsing adrenaline. It's in these times that I especially give thanks to God for all of Creation, allowing us to be creative, and to Jesus for teaching us to have faith to walk on water."
