Insurance Designed For Producers & Photographers

Every photoshoot is unique, and so are the risks you face. Our expertise spans a wide range of small business insurance products designed to protect your operations, employees, and assets. We work with leading carriers to deliver coverage tailored to your industry, budget, and growth plans.

Our photography insurance product expertise includes:

  • Property Policy – Protects buildings, furniture, equipment, and other physical assets from fire, theft, or other covered perils.

  • General Liability – Provides protection from third-party bodily injury, property damage, or personal injury claims (e.g., slip-and-fall incidents).

  • Cyber Liability – the risk of financial loss due to a cybersecurity incident, such as a data breach or cyberattack, which can result in legal claims, regulatory fines, and costs for business interruption.

  • Equipment – covers owned and rented cameras, lenses, and lighting against theft, damage, or loss during use and transport.

  • Commercial Auto – Covers vehicles used for business purposes, including liability and physical damage.

  • Workers’ Compensation – a system that provides financial and medical benefits to employees and independent contractors for work-related injuries.

  • Umbrella Liability – provides an additional layer of protection beyond the limits of your general & automobile liability policies.

  • Errors & Omissions – protects businesses from claims of financial loss resulting from mistakes, negligence, or failure to perform in the professional services they provide.

Claim Scenarios

Equipment Damage or Theft

A photographer’s camera gear is stolen from their vehicle while on assignment. Their Inland Marine (Equipment) coverage helps replace the stolen cameras, lenses, and lighting equipment.

Data Loss or Cyber Incident

A photographer’s hard drive crashes, and client images are lost. In another case, ransomware locks digital files. Cyber Liability insurance covers data recovery costs and potential claims for lost work.

Client Injury on Set

A client trips over a light cable during a photo session. They claim the set was not appropriately protected because the cords were not taped down. General Liability coverage pays for medical expenses and protects you from lawsuits.
