Equipment hire.

As ive decided not to stay on at university to do my BA top up year, i've been thinking more and more about how i would be able to source equipment away from the college. So far my own personal equipment consists of :

Nikon D60
Tripod 
Flash 
2x 8GB memory cards

But if i was going to be doing weddings on a regular basis i would maybe need to upgrade my own equipment (which right now i don't have the money for) or hire from a plymouth based rental store.
Ive been looking online and came across www.hirental.co.uk/ which gives you everything you would need to be prepared. Ive taken snapshots of what i would personally go for if i where to hire from them just to see how much it would cost me.


I chose the D90 because from experience of using it around the college it gives really nice results. alot of depth in the images which i think would really help with achieving the best quality images for the clients.

So out of the lens on offer i would either go with one of these to. I like to do a lot of little personal shots (fly on the wall) when doing weddings and i feel i would be able to capture those little moments much better.
Just incase the weather isn't up to its best to think on your feet and put up a mini studio in the location would really make the client feel like you know what your doing and that just because its gloomy outside they can still have some nice family shots together. 

So going by this website i would be looking at spending £136.19 for a 3 day equipment hire.  I wouldn't need a tripod as i already have one. and this would all be included on the price you would give to the clients
