Camera equipment insurance is a fantastic coverage to include on your policy. We understand that your camera equipment is not only expensive but the heart of your business. If it is damaged or stolen, you could be looking at thousands of dollars to replace or repair it. Camera equipment insurance can help mitigate or even eliminate those out-of-pocket costs.

An additional insured is a landlord or business owner from whom you rent a business space,  studio space, or event booth. It is standard practice for a landlord or event organizer to require you to list them as an additional insured. You can add an additional insured to your insurance policy at any time. For $30 you can have unlimited additional insureds.

Professional wedding photographers face several liability risks. Some claims could look like a client tripping and injuring themselves on your camera equipment, a faulty memory card, and even your camera equipment getting damaged. Capturing your client’s perfect day at several different locations exposes you to a wide array of unknowns and you can’t always have full control of every situation. Should something go wrong, you could be held liable for a variety of expenses, including medical bills, repairs, and legal fees. Wedding photography insurance can help you weather each and every storm at the weddings you shoot.
