Wow,

Great question to post and I know my Photographer personally and for about 14 years but should I ever have to look any further I will be sure to require it! Pat and Wayne in answer to your question; If a vendor should rebut and not just supply the document requested, just move on to the next one and be safe.

Life is Good!

I worked for two large websites and one small site. They require you to have proof of automobile insurance but there was never a requirement on photographer liability insurance. Most professional photographers charge arm and a leg on homes. The RE photographers are mostly realtors and students.

This is a very good question and I suspect that few are checking on the insurance coverage. 

Some may also wonder if any of them have a criminal background.

Yes they do. I wouldnt let a photographer into one of my listings if they did not have liability insurance.
