As a member of HC Land Dev in Vienna, Virginia, for almost three decades, Carter Boehm has supported the transformation of a raw land property valued at more than $150 million into completed lots and entitlements. An experienced land development professional, Carter Boehm has also taken the lead in developing the Yellowstone Film Ranch in Montana’s Paradise Valley. Construction began in 2019 on what would become the state’s first permanent film set.

Through his work with the Yellowstone Film Ranch, Mr. Boehm has helped establish Montana as a destination for major film productions. The ranch’s production-ready facilities will support Rode to Ruin, an upcoming Western thriller directed by and starring Michael Keaton and featuring Morgan Freeman and Laura Linney. His efforts have helped create the authentic Western setting and infrastructure needed to attract high-profile productions to the region. The project was recently covered by Deadline and Yahoo Entertainment.

Mr. Boehm’s career in the film industry began at an early age when he assisted his father with cinematography on Disney and Time magazine films. He later studied film and television at Montana State University and worked as an audio technician on the movie Ask Now the Beast. Since founding his film studio, Ponderosa Films, he has served as executive producer on several independent films, including Robert the Bruce, Broken Ghost, and The Salted Earth.

When he is not working in the film industry or on land development projects, he enjoys off-roading, motorcycling, and playing racquetball.
