Common questions about Photographers

Answering the most frequently asked questions about Photographers.

Am I covered shooting at a client’s property?2026-08-17T23:42:47-04:00

General liability covers damage you cause there. Confirm your policy contemplates off-site work.

Why do venues ask for certificates?2026-08-17T23:42:46-04:00

Because your equipment creates trip and injury exposure. Additional insured status is routine and quick to issue.

Is my gear covered away from home?2026-08-17T23:42:45-04:00

Only with inland marine. Property stops at your premises, and gear is most at risk on location.

Do I need model releases for coverage to apply?2026-08-17T23:42:45-04:00

Releases don’t trigger coverage, but they’re your defense. Media liability covers privacy and likeness claims when they arise.

What happens if I lose a client’s images?2026-08-17T23:42:44-04:00

That’s the signature claim in photography. E&O responds to loss of irreplaceable images from a non-repeatable event.

    I have been using Semper insured Landland for some years now. Stu has been very helpful and responses fast to any questions you need answers too. Sara has contacted me when he was busy. He has gotten the best health insurance each year … More for my needs. It’s hard living on only my widows disability and he has helped get my health care insurance as my needs change and within my budget.

    We are so thrilled to be working with Adam. From the get-go, he took the time to understand our business's needs and worked closely (and tenaciously) to assemble an insurance package that met our unique needs. He's shown himself … More to be diligent, contentious, and a true advocate -- in many ways it feels like Adam's become an extension of my team. In the months we've been working together I've really come to trust Adam, and feel his partnership as an agent reflects a knowledge of our business and its mission and a genuine energy to strengthen and protect our operation.
