ABOUT US
Location Services You Can Trust
Milwaukee is more than beer, Harley’s, Summerfest and Happy Days. No one knows that better than Dave La Haye. The City of Milwaukee trusted Dave to capture the heart of the Cream City for 30 years, photographing its people, places, events and culture. Now Dave shares his breadth of knowledge and photography expertise finding locations for clients like Microsoft, Duluth Trading Company, Harley-Davidson, Mercedes Benz, Reebok, and more.
OUR SERVICES
Reliably Efficient
LOCATION SCOUTING AND MANAGING
Everything you need
Dave connects clients with the fresh takes on Milwaukee’s greatest features and the overlooked, under appreciated sides of the city. Vogue calls Milwaukee the coolest and most underrated city in the Midwest. Dave can show you why. His local knowledge of Milwaukee and the surrounding areas leaves no stone unturned, and no abandoned warehouse forgotten. Whatever your location needs may be - urban, suburban, rural or on the water - Dave knows where to look.
Milwaukee - a hidden gem
In addition to location scouting, Dave La Haye has spent the majority of his professional career photographing Milwaukee. While his familiarity with the city's well-known areas is important, his vast knowledge of Milwaukee's more obscure corners is what guarantees you'll find what you're looking for, and we've got the photos to prove it.

In fact, all photos on this site are Dave La Haye originals.
TESTIMONIALS
Kyle Smith
Supervisor - Media Production

I was challenged with finding snow covered roads to shoot footage of a new vehicle within a very short time frame. I hired Dave as our location scout/manager for our winter footage shoot in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. He provided us with many locations to choose from, which made for a very successful production. I was very pleased with Dave's professionalism, and easy going disposition. I would recommend him to anyone as a location scout/manager

I recently hired Dave La Haye to shoot a photography event that helped support a very important Walmart Initiative. Dave was kind, supportive and strived for excellence during that time. Before the shoot he made sure that he was aligned with the needs we were asking for so that he could deliver the best quality of work possible. I was very pleased with the final product! I would absolutely recommend Dave for future opportunities in his frame of work.

I scouted Milwaukee locations with Dave La Haye for the film Public Enemies, directed by Michael Mann and starring
Johnny Depp & Christian Bale. I can attest to the fact that Dave was professional in every way, and very easy to work with, as well as very knowledgeable about Milwaukee locations. I would definitely recommend Dave as a location manager/scout.

I had the pleasure working with David La Haye recently on some properties we needed photographed in the midwest...on a VERY tight deadline. He accommodated our requests, kept in constant contact throughout the entire process, and offered a high degree of professionalism while delivering high quality photos. We look forward to working with him on future projects.
