Hello, I am posting this as a bit of a long-shot. I am not a photographer, but my sister is. She has steadily been getting better and better photography jobs and I can’t be prouder. Recently a client hired her to take pictures in Vail, which is in a whole other state, paid for her flight, hotel and everything. However, my sister just realized that some of her camera equipment, somehow got lost in the trip and is absolutely panicking right now as she has to be in for the photography session at 8 am. This is coming right after another minor issue with the previous job with said client, so she is now convinced she may very well ruin her one chance forever. Just wondering if any person here has any suggestions or ideas of what she could do to make things right before her session.

    I see many write about rentals already so here an other option, tell her to contact local photographers and explain them the situation.

    In my area we have a whatsapp group of about 50+ photographer and also some filmmaker. When something like this happens, they write it in the group and it usually have a few that are willing to rent their equiptment for a day. For batteries i think it should not have any problem to find someone who is willing to borrow them to her.

    • possible to get the equiptment late at night or ealy in the morning
    • possible to avoid delaying the shoot
    • probably expensive more than buying some new batteries
