Where'bouts Inc. is a world-wide location scouting company based in New York City.

We bring together the location photos and resources of numerous scouts into one archive. We are the source that all production companies & location services go to for locations. The scouts that contribute to our site work independently, but share information among each other to give their clients a distinct advantage. All of us work as location scouts & managers and provide location photos, permits, police permissions, street closures, budgets and insurance needed for film/print shoots and events.
