TEAM BLOOMING PHOTO

partners, best friends, and creative collaborators

We're Carly and Kristin!
We met while living in New York City and fell in love over FaceTime, thanks to our mutual appreciation for photography, music, and adventure. In 2021, we moved to Burlington, Vermont for a new and exciting chapter together. As a team, we see our photo sessions as an opportunity to connect with and empower our clients. We champion radical body positivity, kindness, and humor to help ensure your experience in front of the camera is a fun and stress-free experience.

KRistin Pulido

Lead Photographer

She/Her/Hers


Originally from Texas, Kristin spent her childhood years between sunny San Antonio and Miami, Florida where she developed her passion for photography. Her portrait work took off through the performing arts—particularly opera—working with artists at New World Symphony, Florida Grand Opera, Feinstein's 54 Below, Green Room 42, and more. Kristin loves to photograph live musicians (most recently at Higher Ground in Burlington, VT), as well as weddings and professional headshots.

Carly Schneider

Communications + Marketing

She/Her/Hers


A native Vermonter, Carly grew up in the Castleton area and moved to New York City to attend Marymount Manhattan College. There she earned a degree in communication arts with a concentration in film and video production. Carly’s venture into photography came naturally from her previous video experience, learning how to compose and frame shots, direct subjects, and capture movement. She loves to photograph nature and landscapes, individual headshots, and behind-the-scenes candids.
