Photography and camera equipment insurance

We replace your items on a new for old basis, so in the unfortunate event of a total loss, you get the latest equivalent model as a replacement. By checking how much an equivalent replacement costs in the market today, you will get a good idea of the value you should insure your own equipment for. Don’t forget, if you are VAT-registered you can deduct this element from your total value.

The biggest influence on your insurance costs is your claims history. By taking actions that will reduce the likelihood of accidents, and hence claims, you will build a more attractive profile to insurers. As your no-claims history develops, this will help to positively impact your insurance premiums. This will ultimately free up capital that can be reinvested elsewhere in your business.

We have a variety of covers available to suit your travel arrangements, from UK cover, to UK and Europe cover, to worldwide. Our standard cover is UK and 45 days worldwide; you do not need to notify us when you go abroad unless you exceed 45 days in any one policy year. If worldwide cover is selected, travel cover is unlimited; however, a maximum trip limit of 90 days in any one trip is applicable.

If you have any queries in respect of cover abroad, please contact us.

No, provided you have receipts and invoices for your equipment in the event of a claim. If you are concerned that you may not have these then please supply an equipment list, and this can be good business practice to make sure that your sum insured is always adequate.
