What Insurance Photos Help After Tree Damage

When storm damage hits, photos matter before the debris disappears. Good documentation helps explain the tree condition, the target it struck, the access problems that shaped the removal, and any remaining hazards around the property.

Best photo sequence

Capture the whole tree or failure zone first, then the affected structure or target, then close-ups of cracks, splits, uprooting, and access constraints. Keep a timestamped sequence when possible.
