Reno Tahoe Locations is a small team of production professionals based in Reno and Lake Tahoe. Some of us came up through the production department of national and regional commercials, some of us came up through the camera department. Through years of shooting here, we realized the Reno/ Tahoe area was missing a strong locations resource that could do it all: scout with an astute eye for the creative, permit public roads and lands, clear private residences and businesses, and anticipate production’s needs (basecamps, restrooms, etc).

Reno Tahoe Locations was born from this need and our deep, shared love of this area. When we’re not scouting, location managing, producing, or filming, you can find us skiing, snowboarding, camping, mountain biking, hiking, and jumping off docks in the sunshine.
