Welcome to Photo Rental Source - Your Source for Photo Equipment Rentals Online

Houston Photographers: We are your local source for your rental needs. If you are renting in Houston you can pick up and return your rental at our office near I-10 and Campbell, just a little West of 610. All orders must still be placed online ahead of time (no walk in orders); please read about our local pickup procedure here.

Spring/Summer Busy Season: We are entering into our busiest time of year. Although we buy new equipment almost every week, some of our popular items are booking up many days to over a week in advance. Please keep in mind that we reserve items AFTER an order has been placed, so when in doubt, place an order. Also, if you want to extend your rental near the end of your term it may not be possible. If you think you need a lens for longer than your initial term, let us know ASAP to see if extending is possible.

Follow Photo Rental Source on Facebook and Twitter for special discounts, product updates, and more.

How it works:

1. Pick out the lens, camera body, or flash that you want. With our equipment you can "try before you buy", rent something for a special occasion or assignment, or try something new just for fun.

2. Choose the length of time you would like to use the equipment: 1, 2, 3, or 4 weeks, or let us know if you need a custom rental length.

3. We ship the equipment straight to you via FedEx, complete with door to door tracking and a return shipping label.

4. You enjoy the equipment for your rental length.

5. You put the equipment back in the package, use the pre-paid shipping label, and simply drop off the package at your nearest FedEx location.

How Photo Rental Source is Different:

1. We take reservations! We know you may need equipment at a specific time; just let us know when and we will try to reserve it.

2. Every lens we rent comes with a protective UV filter, so you don't have to worry about scratching any expensive glass. (if you don't want to use the filter no problem, but we provide it)

3. All camera bodies come free with 8 gigabytes or more of memory (either Compact Flash or SD), so you are ready to shoot without any extra expenses.

4. If you need a custom rental period different than 1, 2, 3, or 4 weeks, just let us know and we can set you up!
