- The couple starts their hike early in the morning while it's still dark, equipped with headlamps and a simple map. The calm of pre-dawn and gentle rustling of nature around provides a serene start.
- As they reach a vantage point, they set up their camera on a tripod. The sky slowly begins to lighten, revealing vibrant colors that reflect off the mountain's rugged surfaces. They take turns capturing each other's silhouettes against the burgeoning light.
- After capturing the sunrise, they find a spot to enjoy some homemade snacks. Sitting on a flat rock, they share treats and watch as the world wakes up. The sunโs warmth gradually eradicates the morning chill, and they bask in the beauty and solitude of the mountain.
Preparation steps:
- Prepare for your mountain hike by checking the weather forecast and ensuring you have suitable attire for a cool early morning which will warm up as the sun rises. Pack headlamps, a camera with a tripod, and a simple first aid kit.
- Set your alarm for an early start to reach your photo spot before sunrise. Plan your route the day before, and make sure your camera batteries are fully charged and you have enough memory space for new photos.
- Pack light snacks like sandwiches, fruits, and water. These will keep you energized during your hike and provide a small picnic once youโve captured your sunrise photos.

Some tips:
- Scout the location the day before, if possible, to find the best spots for photography. This helps in saving time during the early morning hours when you might be in a rush to catch the sunrise.
- Use manual settings on your camera to capture the best light as the sun rises. Sometimes auto settings can't adjust fast enough for the changes in natural light.
- Wear comfortable hiking boots and layer your clothing. Although the hike might be chilly at first, it will get warmer quickly after sunrise.
