Capturing Stars Hollow Magic: A Gilmore Girls Photoshoot in Charming New Milford, CT with the Planet Photo Creator Tribe
As fans of the hit TV series Gilmore Girls will attest, the fictional town of Stars Hollow is an integral character in its own right. What many may not know is that Stars Hollow draws inspiration from the real-life charm and character of New Milford, Connecticut. Nestled in the scenic beauty of Litchfield County, New Milford played a pivotal role in shaping the iconic setting that became synonymous with Lorelai and Rory Gilmore’s adventures. Let’s delve into the connection between Gilmore Girls and the picturesque town of New Milford.
Several landmarks in New Milford served as inspiration for key locations in Gilmore Girls. Theo’s Diner is source of inspiration for Stars Hollow’s Luke’s Diner. Fans with a keen eye can spot resemblances between New Milford’s iconic landmarks and the backdrop of many memorable scenes in the show.
Just as Stars Hollow boasts a variety of unique businesses, New Milford’s local establishments contribute to the town’s character. From charming bookstores to cozy diners, the real-life counterparts to Luke’s Diner and the Dragonfly Inn can be found scattered throughout Litchfield County. These establishments not only provide essential services to the community but also serve as a testament to the enduring charm that inspired the creators of Gilmore Girls.
So next time you are craving a little Gilmore Girls then stroll down Bank St in New Milford. Pick up coffee and lunch at Theo’s Diner or River and Rail and then find a bench on the green.
The Planet Photo Creator Tribe is a group of high school girls and guys who really love having fun and being creative. We take the time to plan and style group and themed photo shoots. Our goals are to inspire and influence our community through our images.

Susannah Pawling HS senior
I met Susannah for the first time when she was just days old so to say I was emotional about taking her senior portraits is kind of the understatement of the year. Susannah and my daughter Olivia were born within days of each other and our families spent so much time together when the girls were little. Sam became everyone’s big brother and when Susannah’s little sisters were born we all celebrated. School and after school activities began to take up more and more time so our interactions became less frequent but that bond remains strong.
Susannah is a dedicated dancer and I was thrilled when she wanted to include that passion into her senior photos. Add in the fact that she had an AMAZING red prom dress that she didn’t get a chance to wear because of, well COVID, and we had our second outfit. Susannah did a little shopping with her mom and we had plenty of outfits to play with.
Fairfield Hills in Newtown, CT is one of my favorite locations for an edgy portrait session. Susannah’s senior photo shoot was scheduled for the same week as the devastating California wildfires and because of the smoke high in the atmosphere we had the most incredibly eerie defused light. From something so destructive and dangerous we were able to create something incredibly beautiful.
If you are able to submit a headshot to your yearbook then we can accommodate that but your senior year is so much more than that yearbook headshot.
I design senior photos around the individual so each session is personal and unique. Let’s plan your senior portraits.
Tribe Photo Shoot Make Up Lesson
Photo Shoot Make Up
A lesson in how to get photo shoot ready make up
Applying just the right amount of make up for your photo shoot is not easy!
I invited a few of the girls from the Planet Photo Tribe to join me and Stacey at Skin and Tonic in New Milford to learn how to apply natural make up for the group and concept shoots we have planned this year. All the girls get their make up professionally applied for their own individual shoot but we usually don’t have time to all get professional make up for our group shoots. Learning make up techniques and figuring out what color foundation works for them was such a treat. My camera shows every detail so well applied make up is a must!
I think Sam, Daniella, Susannah, Erinn and Olivia did a fabulous job!
Thanks for the lesson Stacey.
