Recently I have received a number of inquires as to updates and photos for events CTp traditionally covers over the Spring and Summer seasons, and I wanted to address these questions in one fell swoop if I may.
As with most photography studios, our season of choice here at CoverThis Photography is Summer. When the birds come out and the flowers… well, flower… business kicks in to gear. This year, however, CoverThis Photography must take the season off to focus on family health and recovery.
Fear not, however, all of the events that CTp has covered in the past are still being covered in the interim. What businesses/individuals are filling in for CTp, I do no know, but I do know that things are still Covered.
I know that some events are being transparent about this, but judging by some of the messages I have received, there are a few who are not relaying this information on to their patrons. I have not been informed of any of this information, and unfortunately my only advice is to contact your promotor/event directly if they have not published who their Photographer or Videographer is/was this season. If you find out, please feel free to post any information you have gleaned in the comments below, I am sure there are more people who would be interested in such information as well.
Again, I am sorry for any inconvenience this may have caused.
Have a safe, fun, and healthy summer.
Signed,
Michael J Mulligan

We had the pleasure of attending the 2011 International Bluegrass Music Association convention this fall, in association with our partner, Thomas Point Beach of Brunswick, Maine. We had a great weekend in Nashville, Tenn, and met lots of great bands. The 2012 Thomas Point Beach Bluegrass Festival is going to be one great event, and we are really excited to see what is in store.
Update: As an added perk to the trip, CoverThis Photography had some photographs featured on the Bluegrass Today website, check them out HERE, and even more photos of the weekend below!

You can be told many things by friends and family, but there are just some things you need to learn on your own to really grasp.
One of those things is the importance of regular back-ups.
Not of photos and personal documents, people usually grasp that fairly quick out of the gate. I am talking about the less obvious things, things you take for granted due to assumed security and false promises. I am talking about your website content.
The webhost I was previously with seems to have gone under. Their main page is still up, but they are unresponsive in any channel, and they have taken a liking to dropping customers accounts with out notice. I was recently one of those customers. Luckily I had regular backups of my web design and template, but in the event of being cast to the curb, I failed to have backups of the itsy bitsy words and content of my site, and thus, after changing to a backup host, I am left with what you see here.
So, for the next few days/weeks, I will be adding content BACK to my website, and oh so much more. I will take this opportunity to expand the site, and finish little parts I had let slip the first time.
I will also be making backups, you know, just in case…
[For clients: My images are on a different collocation server with nightly backups and redundancy across the country. In addition I maintain three backups of culled photos in separate locations, as well as at the office. Client photo backups are not lacking in any way, and the server debacle here did not effect availability of those memories]
