PREVIEW OUTPUT 1:
Sure, I'd be happy to help you capture a stunning portrait in the beautiful morning light by the lake with mountains in the background. Given your Nikon D850 and advanced skill level, here are my recommendations:
Cameras: Nikon D850
Lenses: 

Nikkor 85mm f/1.4G: This prime lens will provide beautiful background blur (bokeh) while keeping your subject sharp. It's great for portraits, offering a flattering focal length.
Nikkor 24-70mm f/2.8E ED VR: This versatile zoom lens is excellent for capturing a variety of compositions and can work well for environmental portraits with the mountains in the background.

Aperture: 
For the prime lens (85mm f/1.4G), use an aperture around f/2.2 to f/2.8 to create a creamy background blur that makes your subject pop. For the zoom lens (24-70mm f/2.8E), use around f/4 to f/5.6 for a balance between subject sharpness and background separation.
ISO: 
Start with ISO 100 for the cleanest image quality. Increase it only if the lighting conditions require it, but try to keep it as low as possible to avoid noise.
Lighting:
The morning sun provides a soft, warm glow that's perfect for portraits. Position your subject so the sun is to their side or slightly behind them for flattering lighting. Consider using a reflector to bounce light onto their face and fill in shadows.
Other Remarks:

Focus on the Eyes: In portrait photography, the eyes are crucial. Ensure your subject's eyes are in sharp focus to create a captivating image.
Use a Wide Aperture: A wide aperture will help you achieve that beautiful background blur, separating your subject from the background.
Pose and Composition: Experiment with different poses and compositions to find the most flattering angle and arrangement.
Consider Golden Hour: The early morning sunlight around sunrise (golden hour) will enhance the overall atmosphere of the photo.

Post-Processing Recommendations:
Use software like Adobe Lightroom to fine-tune the colors, contrast, and sharpness. Adjust the exposure if needed, but aim to get the best exposure in-camera.
Examples:

Position the woman with her back slightly turned towards the sun to create a soft rim light on her hair.
Capture candid moments as she interacts with the serene lake surroundings.
Experiment with both close-up shots and wider shots to capture the beauty of the environment.

Remember, these are general recommendations, and feel free to adjust settings based on your creative vision and the specific conditions on the day of the shoot. Enjoy capturing a breathtaking portrait by the lake!
