Idea:

	# ( daemon -p /var/run/my.pid /path/to/python3.4 /path/to/myscript.py ) > /tmp/myscript.log 2>&1

You can use ( ... ) to "summarize" subshell outputs, but in
your case using _script_ is probably the easiest method. It
will capture all output written to the terminal (stdout and
stderr). See "man script" for details.
