Dan Cora prepares for his overnight shift with the St. Louis Metropolitan Police Department on February 13, 2011. Cora said he enjoys working the shift because "It's more exciting at night, there's more things to do."
Katie Cora, front, checks out her up-do created by Heather Wingbermuehle at Salono Milano on February 12, 2011. Cora is a member of the St. Louis Police Wives' Association, a group composed of wives, mothers, and widows of active and retired St. Louis police officers. Cora came to the salon to get her hair done for the group's annual Valentine's Dance that she attended with her husband Dan, who is a police officer.

The couple met in the military and have been married for a little over two years now. They have a seven-year-old daughter, Madison, and are expecting their second child in June.
Katie Cora watches as her husband, Dan gets ready to leave for his overnight shift on February 13, 2011. "It's hard because every time that he walks out the door it might be the last time I see him," Katie said.
Overall, I'm pretty happy with the way my project turned out. I really enjoyed getting to know Katie and Dan as well as their friends, and I think I captured some great moments. I learned that I need to work on using a variety of lenses/angles for my next project though!
