Insurance for amateur videographers
If you just enjoy being an amateur videographer and don’t earn any money from it, you might not think about needing insurance.
But even if you don’t get paid for your filming, you still face the risk of your videography equipment being stolen or damaged. Do you have the funds to replace it?
And whilst you might not be paid for your work and therefore not operating as a professional, you could still be held personally liable for damage or bodily injury to a third party that occur as a result of your actions as an amateur video maker. For example, if someone were to trip over your equipment bags and suffered an injury.

With amateur videographer insurance from Aaduki, you can choose to insure on a “new for old” basis. This means that if your kit is lost, stolen or damaged and cannot be repaired, the policy will provide for brand new replacements.
Alternatively, and to help keep costs down, you can choose to insure for the cost of second-hand replacements, subject to the amount you’ve chosen to insure for.

Why not refer a photographer or videographer friend?
As a thank you, you could receive money off your next insurance with Aaduki One.
You can extend cover on your equipment whilst away from home to any territory worldwide (except where the UK Foreign Office advises against all but essential travel, and specifically excluded countries). By designing your cover in this way you can keep your premium cost down by not having to insure all items away from your home all of the time if you do not need such a wide scope of cover.
As long as you’re not being hired, paid or rewarded for your filming, then amateur videography insurance will cover you. If you receive any form of payment for your services, then you should consider professional videographer insurance.
