It's mid Summer, and we couldn't be happier at<br />
<strong>teenLook</strong>. Although, here in Alberta it has been 4-5<br />
weeks of rain for our Summer so far! The weather may<br />
be dreary, but the pages of <strong>teenLook</strong> are lit up with all<br />
of the talented teens submitting and that are featured<br />
here! Seriously, the support has been amazing! Every<br />
issue keeps growing and reaching further out into the<br />
world. Especially now that Dara is on the staff list,<br />
helping with marketing and communicating with you<br />
guys on our social media networks. She is terrific and<br />
a truly talented lady in her own right. Our joining<br />
up here to make <strong>teenLook</strong> a better publication was a<br />
move that came naturally as we both have the same<br />
interests at heart. Letting the teen talent out there get<br />
seen and inspired to continue pursuing their dreams.<br />
This issue is aimed in that direction by having a guy<br />
on the cover! It is tough to get teen boys to submit<br />
their photos, and I want to encourage them to be as<br />
much a part of this as the girls. <strong>Ethan</strong> is pretty new to<br />
the industry, but as soon as I saw his submissions, I<br />
knew the direction for our next cover was to include<br />
him on it. In our last issue, Talayna was flawless as<br />
we remembered Audrey Hepburn. I hope you will<br />
agree that <strong>Ethan</strong> radiated the feel and look of Film<br />
Icon, James Dean, for this feature. I contacted John<br />
Oland of Motoparts about using a few of his vintage<br />
bikes from his collection for the cover shoot. He was<br />
immediately supportive and felt honoured to be included<br />
in the work we are doing. The day of the shoot<br />
was mixed with rain and clouds, but we just let it add<br />
to the drama of the shoot. It was a perfect time. I will<br />
be adding a section to the website that will include<br />
more photos for the cover shoots, as only a few can be<br />
included in the features here in the magazine. Lots of<br />
things are being added and changing to bring a better<br />
publication for all of you. Another development is<br />
merch that will be created for purchase to show your<br />
love and support and a way to show your teen spirit!<br />

preview of what we are working on, on page 81.<br />
I hope you will enjoy this fantastic issue of <strong>teenLook</strong><br />
and know I am hard at work getting issue four underway!<br />
September's issue will feature a back to school<br />
theme. So if you have some shoots lined up, feel free<br />
to incorporate your emotions about that! I'm sure it<br />
will be a mixed range of feelings!<br />
All the best, and enjoy the rest of the Summer!<br />
I would love your feedback and ideas of what you<br />
