Zach’s Senior Photos

June 14, 2013/in Senior Photos /by Jason Duchow

Zach is a senior in the class of 2014 from Lake City High School, we took his senior photos at two different locations in the Coeur d’Alene area. The first location was a spot that he has enjoyed visiting for many years. While we were there someone set off what sounded like an M80 which prompted the property owner to send an entourage to find out who was setting off fireworks on their property. We benefited from this as they parked their classic Toyota Land Cruiser right by where were were taking photos so naturally we had to make use of it as a prop!

Aaron is a Senior who lives in Iowa but during a visit to North Idaho in June I had the pleasure of working with him to create some senior photos that just cannot be created in Iowa! We started out at a location on Schweitzer with a great view of Lake Pend Orielle and then visited a couple of locations around the Sandpoint City Beach as well as the Lake.

Thank you to Century 21 Realtor Eric Skinner for access to this great view. I you like the view the property we took these photos from is currently on the market visit the following link to find Eric’s contact information: http://realestate.sandpoint.com/EricSkinner.asp

Taylor’s Senior Photos

June 9, 2013/in Senior Photos /by Jason Duchow

Taylor is very no stranger to being in front of my camera, for the last two years he has been my main assistant for portrait sessions and weddings, this last year he was also a senior and we have been working on his senior photos the entire year. Yes, we did have an official senior session this spring but we have also been building up his senior photo portfolio here and there through out the year.

Here is Taylor hard at work during our senior session with James

Let’s get on with some of the photos from his official senior portrait shoot.

Here is a test shot that I took of Taylor before a portrait session that he liked enough to include wit his senior photos

Here are a couple of shots we took at the end of a shoot in Priest River

Lastly, my favorite shot of Taylor. We finished up a fun session and decided to mess around and test Taylor’s acting skills, his job was to pretend he was running away from a speeding train. What do you think, did he sell it?

Pete’s Junkyard Portraits and More

June 8, 2013/in Senior Photos /by Jason Duchow

Pete and I worked together on two different occasions to make his senior photos. The first time around we did some junkyard portraits with the goal of creating something a little edgy and dramatic followed by a few football themed portraits.

Our second session this spring was focused on getting the “softer side” of Pete which just did not fit well with the locations of our first session. For the second session we were in Montana. Pete went along with me to assist on another senior photo shoot and then afterwards we found a number of locations that worked great, the first of which could not have been more appropriate. Yes, that sign really does say Pete Creek, no Photoshop trickery here!

Lastly, here are a few other shots of Pete that I took during some of the other occasions that he filled in for my regular assistant and helped out on a shoot.

June 7, 2013/in Senior Photos /by Jason Duchow

Daranie is going to be a senior at Priest River High School and is one of my Class of 2014 Senior Models, for her first session with me we worked on her senior photos at the ranch of a family friend. We had a great time and had the sun not set could have kept going for hours, but as you will see with photos from the end of our session I am very glad that the sun did indeed set because the sunset made for an amazing backdrop for the final part of our session.

03/27/2013 Lakeland vs. Lake City (Coeur d’Alene Photographer)

March 31, 2013/in Baseball, Softball /by Jason Duchow

The Lakeland Hawks softball and baseball teams took the short trip to Coeur d’Alene to take on the Timberwolves of Lake City High School. I was there for all 7 innings of the Softball game and the last three innings of the baseball game.

Lakeland vs. Lake City Softball: This Game / All 2013 Galleries

The last four photos from this game are from the same play. Lake City senior pitcher Casey Stangle was on second base when her team mate hit a fly ball up the middle of the field toward second base. Normally if the fly ball was caught in the air she would have a chance to get back to the base and avoid a double play, but Lakeland Shortstop Bekah Kastning caught the fly ball with her foot already on second, turning two. Unfortunately the runner ran right in front of me at the peak of the action but I thought the reactions to the play by the two players was worth sharing.
