Cypress Title held a Country Christmas Party at Varsity Theatre at the gates of LSU in Baton Rouge, Louisiana.

In south Louisiana, you can simply say Merry Christmas around this time of year and be fine, but since I'm looking to branch out and find a larger audience, I want to make sure I'm including everyone. Whether you celebrate Christmas, Hanukkah, Kwanzaa, or just winter, I wish you the best during the holidays.

Well, as you can probably tell, 'tis the season for parties and lots of them. Coworkers and families alike are avoiding the cold and darkness this time of year brings, and kicking up their heels.

Earlier this month, I was fortunate to photograph a huge company party at Varsity Theatre in Baton Rouge, Louisiana. I had a blast, especially considering that I love the challenge of photographing events.

Below you will find just a few of my favorite shots from the fun night. I had so many images, I broke it up into two galleries, which you can find at http://www.michaeltortorich.com/p729687304 and http://www.michaeltortorich.com/p68709411.

Along with my assistant, we started the night by getting posed photos of everyone as they arrived. As you can see above, there were lots of cool costumes.

Keeping with the theme, there was an awesome country band for entertainment.

Jason Miller and his band totally rocked the place.

They even had some amazing roping on display.

Oh, and there was a mechanical bull! As you can see by the above shot, that made for some awesome action photos.

Yeah, this party was huge. And I had a blast covering all of the fun. Lots of people used their candid photos as profile and cover pictures for Facebook, which is always a compliment to me.

Of course, in this new viral world, I see sharing as a good thing. I typically watermark the photos I add to social media sites, so it's a way to get my name out there.
