In a recent inquest, a man from the North East admitted that he had stolen expensive photography equipment and is now facing a prison sentence for the offence.

Unfortunately this is not the first time a photographer has experienced a robbery and lost many valuable pieces of equipment as a result. Many people believe that burglars seek traditional items such as jewellery, TV’s and game consoles but this is not always the case – photography equipment can often be a prime target.

To cover yourself against these losses, it is essential that you take out photographers insurance to protect yourself. If you already have a policy, make sure you check you are fully aware of what it covers – some policies may not cover equipment in your car boot, for example.  Alternatively, if you would like to chat to us about a bespoke policy, don’t hesitate to call 0844 811 8056 today.
