The Day That...

The most original and unique Wedding, New Baby or Anniversary gift; a beautiful landscape photograph

What better way to commemorate a special day than a photograph that captures the beauty and mood of that day. The photographs are a lasting reminder that would make a perfect gift for any special occasion...a wedding, anniversary, birth, christening or special birthday, you name it.

Wow… just wow. 💛 Completely overwhelmed by the response to our closing down announcement this week, thank you so much for every order, message and story shared. It’s been an emotional, busy, and beautiful week all at once. 🌅 Here's just a fraction of the prints that have left us this week.

We’ve been bombarded by farewell messages from customers who still have prints from our very first years proudly hanging on their walls. Customers have been in touch who've regularly ordered dawns for births, weddings, anniversaries and more over the years along with touching stories of prints ordered for loved ones no longer with us. It’s reminded us how these sunrise images connect so deeply on so many different levels.

We’ve seen a rush of orders from early Christmas shoppers, long-overdue gifts ("I always meant to get this ordered" has been a recurring theme!), prints bought for grown-up children's first days, including 16th and 18th birthdays from dawns captured back in 2006! A handful of grandparents have been in touch ordering prints for ALL their grandchildren too! Wedding day and day we met prints have been popular, with a very amusing message from a customer, politely translated as "The wife would never let me live it down if I didn't finally order this" 😂

Favourite comment of the week though:
✨ “In a world that’s become increasingly fake and and more about AI, filters and algorithms you’ve stood for something beautifully pure... Real human talent, passion and dedication to create something that's both timeless and emotional.”

Thank you for helping us end this chapter on such a high. 💫🙏

The archive will remain online until the end of November to order your special dawn - maybe one you’ve always meant to get, or a gift for someone who just needs a little positivity adding to their walls 👉 Explore our sunrise archive here: https://thedaythat.co.uk/, and please do share this with anyone who may not have ordered yet.

Here's hoping for a sunny final sunrise tomorrow, it'll be emotional since as another customer said this week “Cornwall has lost a little bit of history.” 💔

With love and thanks to all of you from the bottom of our hearts,

The Day That Team x

This isn’t a post we ever thought we’d write 💔 After 20 magical years of sunrise chasing, we’ll soon be capturing our final dawn on 12th October 2025 🌅

From weddings to new arrivals, anniversaries to so many more meaningful days, your stories have been at the heart of our journey. Thank you for being part of our story by allowing us to be part of yours 💫

To celebrate everything the team have achieved over the last 20 years, we’re offering 20% off ALL prints with the code FINALDAWN20.

All information about the wind down and key dates is over on our blog - head on over, take a look back at your dawns, and please do share this with any friends or family who might like to secure a special print. https://thedaythat.co.uk/blog/our-final-dawn/

Complete the caption: "Colder than a ... ?" 😜 Best one wins a little voucher!
Btw, this is the talented Kieran, wrapped up in all his layers. He normally hangs around for a while after sunrise just incase some late colour develops in the sky but this morning he was straight back in his car with the heaters on full whack! 🥶

This morning at Porthgwidden... Reminds me of my uni days trying to get home the morning after a big night out 😆 🦭

Last orders at the bar folks 🎁🎄 If you are thinking of gifting someone (or maybe even yourself) a print from our collection of over 6500 dawns then there are only a few days left to ensure your order arrives in time for Christmas. Thank you so much to everyone for supporting our work again this year. When we receive feedback from customers like this it makes everything we do mean so much more: "Thank you, they will love it. Without fail your prints radiate rainbows of light and joy across the room and always make the recipient a little emotional x" 🙏 😊 ✨

Only one week left to order your personalised dawn prints for Christmas Delivery folks! 😱🎁🎄 I know I know, it seems way too early to be calling time on Christmas prints especially if (like me) you've not even really thought about gifts yet, however the way Christmas is falling this year means any prints really need to be in the post early, and they do take a little time to print & make to order. So if you do need any unique gifts to mark a special occasion that's happened this year then we've put together a blog post with full Christmas timings and a few ways you can save 🎅✌️
