Meet The Team (Wayne & Sons)

About Wayne

For graphic designer and photographer Wayne M. White, his passion has been all things automotive for as long as he can remember. 

In 2012, Wayne started RaceCarDriverPosters.com to share that passion with fellow enthusiasts, displaying custom-designed posters using the photos he captured at BBORR & SORC. In 2018, Wayne became the Official Event Photographer of the SSCC and NORC races in Ely, Nevada as well. Today, he is the Official Event Photographer of all five Open Road Races.

About Spencer

Spencer has been helping his dad Wayne over the last 10 years at various races. Spencer loves cars just as much as his Dad and recently started working for Studio 2108 full time. Spencer is mastering Photoshop and teaching Wayne a few new tricks. 

While in school, Spencer would travel with Wayne to Nevada, Nebraska and Texas to help photograph the Open Road Races, if his schedule permitted him to. Spencer takes after his dad, with an extreme love of all things cars, one might argue that he is a larger car guy than his dad. He loves to go to the races and loves experimenting with new and different camera techniques to get new and exciting shots of the cars as they race by.

When Spencer got a call from Wayne in 2020 that he was flying to Arizona to purchase a 2018 BMW M4, he hopped on the flight with his dad to be there when he took delivery. Even though it was not Wayne’s first BMW, it was Wayne’s first time driving an M4. However, Spencer had plenty of experience driving a BMW M4, mainly due to a friend from high school buying one 3 years prior. Spencer realized that he had to teach the old dog some new tricks, tricks that he had picked up from driving a similar year M4. After teaching his dad the ins and outs of the car, they began their voyage back to St. Louis. And while driving back, Spencer set a top speed in the BMW that has yet to be broken by Wayne. The BMW M4 strengthened the bond between the two and is just one story among countless others, about the two’s shared love for all things cars.

Spencer was recently tasked with creating a wrap for one of Studio 2108 clients Baja racing trucks. He was excited about this opportunity and jumped into action, creating more than 20 different variations. “Being able to see the truck that I designed race through the desert was a surreal experience, even though I watched it on my computer, it was amazing to see something that I had worked so hard on come to life.”

“Being there with my dad when he picked up his BMW M4 is something I will never forget, the smile on his face and his pure excitement was contagious. The entire trip, from Arizona to St. Louis, he had a smile from ear-to-ear. I realized it wasn’t just a car to him, it was him achieving a life-long goal. I am so happy that I was able to be there and that I had the opportunity to bond and make new lasting memories with my dad.” – Spencer
