I am very excited to welcome Tonya Hartz as our guest on the fifth edition of NOW NOW. We recorded this conversation on Tuesday, December 16, 2025.
Tonya is a Vancouver-based photographer and location scout with nearly 30 years of experience in the film industry. She has cultivated a deep understanding of both production requirements and the intrinsic value of a location’s department’s creative contribution to the screen. Tonya has worked with exceptional artists across independent films, commercials, episodic television, and large-budget productions. Her work in both photography and location scouting is defined by intuition, creative vision, and a keen eye for storytelling.
