Photographer Brian Rueb was approached by two friends to shoot their wedding -�a familiar proposal for�many photographers. However, there was a�slightly unusual twist in this case, as the couple planned to tie the knot on top of Half Dome in Yosemite National Park.

For those unfamiliar, Half Dome is a 4,737 ft granite rock formation rising above Yosemite Valley. Anyone planning to visit the top can either climb a sheer rock wall, or make a trip up the slightly sloped east face�with the help of some braided steel cables attached to poles that are fixed to the rock surface.�

Determined to help his friends document the occasion and face his fear of heights, Rueb made the eight mile hike with the bride and groom to the Dome.�Suffice to say the trip up the cables�wasn’t an easy one for him, but he made it to the top for a truly unique wedding shoot.
