Huey Lewis and The News – 2014 Festival at Sandpoint

Last night I had the pleasure of doing some freelance work for the Bonner County Daily Bee covering the Huey Lewis and The News show at the 2014 Festival at Sandpoint. One fun fact about the show is that my next door neighbor when I was growing is the lead singer for the opening act, The Miah Kohal Band. It was fun to see this talented local band playing to the sell out crowd and they put on a great show. During those growing up years who would have guessed that Miah would someday be playing the same stage as one of my favorite bands. Well, enough with the nostalgia, on with the photos!

July Bobble Head Portraits

August 1, 2013/in Bobble Head Portraits /by Jason Duchow

When you use a wide angle lens, like my Canon 17-40, you have to pay close attention to the distortion that is created when you shoot the lens at the wider settings. The distortion is especially prominent when you shoot with a full frame camera body like the Canon 5D III. It is usually recommended that you try to avoid the distortion, especially when taking portraits but instead I have decided to start embracing it to make some fun, intentionally goofy portraits during my senior photo sessions. I have been calling these portraits my “Bobble Head Portraits”, the reason will be blatantly obvious as you view the photos!

The main goal of my senior sessions is to make sure that my clients look great, an important part of achieving that goal is to make sure that we always have a fun time working together and these Bobble Head Portraits are sure to bring a laugh or two. Here are the Bobble Head Portraits from my July photo sessions.

Nick & Laura’s Engagement Photos

July 17, 2013/in Engagemet Photos /by Jason Duchow

Recently I met up with Nick and Laura in Sandpoint, Idaho to take some engagement photos for them and I have to say it was quite an interesting experience! This is not a couple that will get accused of taking themselves to seriously and in between the hi-jinx we were able to get some photos along the lines of what you might expect. We started out at a location on Schweitzer mountain and finished up down by Lake Pend Orielle.

Nothing like lightstands and reflectors for some couples jousting!

July 15, 2013/in Senior Photos /by Jason Duchow

Connor is a senior from the class of 2014 at Moscow High School, we met up in Coeur d’Alene to work together on his senior photos. Since music is such a big part of his life he spent a lot of time during out session with his guitar in his hands.

On our way between locations we came across a great lemonade stand and I could not resist asking permission to take a few portraits with the stand and the young entrepreneur running it.

We finished up with some colorful sunset shots by Lake Coeur d’Alene.

Unfortunately the field we planned to take soccer photos on was being used, we found a backup location . . . I just wish there would have been a net in the goal!
