Welcome to the LMGA

WELCOME TO THE LOCATION MANAGERS GUILD OF AMERICA

Location Managers find and photograph locations worldwide for the production of film, television, commercials, music videos, print and new media. We are vital members of the design team. The Location Manager is responsible for securing all permits, permissions, and for handling the logistics of all work outside of the studio.


Meet our membership, learn about the places we've been, and find out where we are going.
