I'm not sure you can kiss in any other way than affectionately. In fact, that adverb doesn't sound romantic enough. A grandmother might affectionately stroke the cheek of a grandchild. I'd go with something like "kissing passionately".
I wouldn't call that a vast expanse of sky, nor would I describe it as fiery. Fiery conjures up either the bright reds and purples of sunrise/sunset, or the terrifying orange glow that could be seen during the wildfires in Australia earlier in the year.
They're beneath the tree — unless they're underground.
It's okay. Well done.What do you think about this?
A young couple were passionately kissing beneath a tree, silhouetted against the golden sky.
It's okay. Well done.
They shared a loving embrace?

I'm totally fine with "under the tree", "underneath the tree" and "beneath the tree" (in order of my preference). Common sense tells us they're not under the ground.
Thanks. Can you think of something I can say instead of kissing? I feel like that is too easy! I perfectly understand it does the trick and I should keep it simple.
But for the sake of practice, what is a dramatic way of talking about their kissing?
