Accidents do happen.......
like this one on my personal vehicle this morning.
So, today we will talk about insurance I guess.
Do not skip this important step. Insuring yourself, any one you bring in for a shoot and your equipment is a necessity. It covers your butt if an accident were to occur. There are many choices out there as far as carriers go. This link will help you compare rates from different carriers. The good news is that these types of policies are a lot cheaper than one would expect. Call your agent that handles your vehicles and your homeowners policies. Find out if a general business policy suits your needs or if you need to look at also carrying an inland/marine policy.
These links should also help answer some questions and point you in the right direction:

Protecting Your Business with Insurance
The biggest suggestion I can offer in regards to insurance is make sure deductible is one that you can afford to pay in the event an accident does occur. And always go with replacement cost for all equipment.
