DESCRIPTION:
“He seems to have an ability to deal with this extraordinary scale and these varied surfaces that I don’t think anybody else had.”—Nicolas Olsberg, curator

Internationally renowned architectural photographer Wayne Thom will share his exceptional techniques for shooting large buildings—and show structures on the USC campus in a new light—in this hands-on workshop. Bring a digital camera or phone camera to photograph the Von KleinSmid Center, designed by Edward Durell Stone, and the USC Annenberg School for Communication and Journalism building, designed by A. Quincy Jones. Thom will provide expert tips and feedback as you go.

Wayne Thom is an internationally renowned architectural photographer. He was born in Shanghai and grew up in Hong Kong before moving to Vancouver and then Southern California. In his decades-long career, he has photographed more than 2,800 projects, most notably buildings in L.A.
