Next Exit Photography

Cat & Adi are the best. Not only are they tremendously talented photographers, but their professionalism and personalities are wonderful too. I've been a huge fan of NextExit for years and knew the minute we got engaged which photographers we would be hiring. They're super creative with styling the photos and work with each couple to make sure they're comfortable with having their photos taken. Additionally, they whipped everyone into shape to make sure we had the photos we wanted. I've only seen a few teasers from our wedding and I cannot wait to see the full set!!! Thanks to NextExit for giving us our tangible memories from our wedding!

Next Exit is AWESOME. Cat and Adi and their team are so incredibly talented, that booking them for our wedding may have been one of the best decisions we made. Adi and his team shot our July wedding this year at the St. Regis, and when I saw our online gallery, I couldn't believe how breathtaking all of the shots were. The photos went above and beyond anything I had imagined, and we couldn't be happier with the results. On top of that, Adi was such a blast to work with on our big day. He made all of us feel so comfortable in front of the camera. We felt very relaxed and confident because his experience is so evident from the second you meet him. He was even willing to get in the dirt (literally!) to capture that perfect shot. Adi and his team had so many creative ideas, that when we saw our images, they were not only beautiful, but unique. Cat is also so sweet and has also been an incredible pleasure to work with. She and Nicole are so quick respond to any questions you might have--I've gotten emails from Cat at midnight in response a question I had sent just 5 minutes prior! Needless to say, I was impressed. We'll be ordering our albums from them shortly, and are so excited to get a tangible album that we can show off to all of our family and friends. I would highly recommend Next Exit. They're amazing :)

After meeting with a number of photographers, we decided to go with Next Exit Photography because of their professionalism, experience and proven photo excellence. There is only one shot at capturing the real sense and feeling of your wedding. You can't cut corners on this important item because you can't go back in time and do it again. It is an important investment and we believe we made that right choice with Next Exit. Cat Benner was fantastic. She was calm and positive throughout the day and made everyone feel comfortable. The photos came out beautiful and we were so happy with our choice of photographers. We will have these photos to enjoy and share with family and friends for the rest of our lives.

Adi was our engagement and wedding photographer and we could not be happier that we chose Next Exit! Next Exit takes photographs that are not your uber-traditional posed type photos - each photo looks like a piece of artwork - simply amazing! Even when it rained... in JULY... in LOS ANGELES... on our wedding day... Adi's calm and cool reaction (Something like...Rain? In July? Awesome!) :) truly helped me (the bride) stay calm and unfazed. I was able to enjoy the uniqueness of the day and what a blessing it was. (Our pictures are proof of what a blessing that amazing weather was - Adi captured it all!!!!!) Cat, Adi, and Nicole are super responsive and easy to get in touch with! We are so happy we found Next Exit!

Next Exit Photography is amazing. They are so insanely talented and captured our day in the most perfect way. We have so many favorites that it's really hard to narrow down the photos we want to put up in our home and use in our album. The way Adi has the ability to capture the expressions on someone's face in a single moment of time with a photojournalistic style is just absolutely incredible. Plus on top of that, he's so much fun to work with and will totally put you at ease in front of the camera. You will have no regrets hiring them, just the most perfect magazine-worthy wedding photos!!!

When my husband and I were first looking for photographers over a year ago, we were looking for a team with the skills, talent, and professionalism, without the attitude. We were nervous enough already in front of the camera without having to feel uncomfortable with the person behind it. Cat & Adi were everything we hoped for and more! Although their photos will more than show that they are true rock star artists, Cat & Adi's down-to-earth nature make it so easy to feel comfortable around them. In fact, I don't know how they did it, but they somehow managed to convince my shy, conservative, Asian parents to dance together at our wedding. That was the first, and perhaps, last time I'll ever see such a sight. So thank you Cat & Adi from the bottom of my heart for making it happen & capturing it on film for all eternity. When the wedding is over, pictures & memories are what is left. With Next Exit Photography, you can trust that they will take care of what is most important. P.S. Cat really does get back to you THAT quickly and she is THAT patient & informative. She is AMAZING!!!

Adi and Kat are awesome! They are super experienced and it shows. I highly recommend them!

I cannot say enough wonderful things about Next Exit! People that know me know that I hate taking pictures. I get nervous anytime anybody takes out a camera. My now husband says that every time he tries to take a photo of me, I make a weird smile and in almost every photo I have (until Cat & Adi) I look a bit off...uncomfortable...and, well a bit goofy. I had accepted that and thought it was just me. Well...that isn't the case! I just needed to work with somebody who made me relax and who knows how to get the best angels and light....I needed NEXT EXIT! From the moment I met Adi and Cat I knew this experience was going to be special. At our first meeting, my husband, mom and I sat down in their studio, Adi turned on Tom Petty's "American Girl", and we watched on a big screen some amazing photos they've shot of other weddings. And I must say that in each and every one, there was something special, a spirit, energy, humor,...magic! I immediately relaxed since the people in the photos were just regular people like me but who looked like they were in a magazine! We decided to shoot an engagement session a few months later (even though I had never planned on engagement photos). I know it was just a "photo shoot" but we had a blast! My now husband and I were laughing and kissing and falling in love all over again all while Adi was capturing the moment. He made it truly painless and quick and I LOVE the photos. Then came the wedding day. The good thing is that I was not worried at all since we had already had the painless and fun engagement session. I trusted Adi so I got to just be in the moment..and isn't that the point...to be in the moment on the day you get married? :). My whole wedding was a dream come true and Next Exit got it all on film. We have our photo album out on our coffee table and every single person who opens it says that the photos are the best they have ever seen. I am no super model, but I swear...in some of those photos I look like one! Next Exit is extremely professional, talented, easy going, and they deliver the goods! Visit their site and search for Julia & Urban if you want to see our pics. :)

Simply the BOMB! Adi & Kat are FANTASTIC!!!!

I don't think I'll ever be able to recommend Next Exit highly enough. Cat and Adi are true professionals, yet they were comfortable and downright fun to work with. Their love of what they do shines in each and every shot. To this day, we continue to hear from friends that we have "the best wedding pictures they've ever seen". ** CHECK OUT MY PHOTO ALBUM to see the proof! :)

Adi and Cat were just amazing. I honestly don't even know where to begin. They're dynamic, incredibly talented photographers who run their humble business out of their home. They captured precious moments of our wedding day that I believe would have otherwise been lost. I had heard about the result of my nieces getting their own chocolate cupcakes but didn't get to see it until now. It's one of my favorite pictures! Adi and Cat made everyone feel comfortable and you can see it in every photo. They understood that we were all a little stressed and a little nervous. Cat and Adi actually drove me to the ceremony and Cat sat with me in the car as I waited for my big entrance and kept me calm and feeling positive. Everyone loves our photographs and even more importantly, we love our photographs. My DH and I can easily say, Adi and Cat at Next Exit Photography were the only vendors from our entire wedding experience that were both irreplaceable and indispensable.

We had a wonderful time working with Kat and Adi. The photos captured the feeling of the night and we couldn't be more pleased with the results.

Wow - worth every penny and more! The team at Next Exit is every bride's perfect combination of professionalism, gorgeous product, fun, easily accessible. From my first meeting with Cat, I knew that I did not want to work with anyone else! She and her assistant Stuart showed up on the morning of the wedding full of energy and enthusiasm. She worked well with my nervous husband and my wonderful but nutty group of family and friends. The pictures were so overwhelming and beautiful. Cat's husband Adi is also a top-notch photographer and fabulous to work with. I cannot say enough about Next Exit - they made my wedding memories complete!!

Planning a wedding in California from England was no easy feat and the best decision we made by far was choosing Next Exit. Cat and Adi and associate Stephanie were amazing. They held my hand along the way and on the day were so incredibly professional and fun as well. Adi's creative ideas take wedding photography to a whole new level. These are not wedding photos - they are art pieces. You will treasure every image they take - the only hard bit is to choose which ones to put in your album and frames. I am trying to find excuses to visit California again just so that I can get them to take family portraits.

After meeting with a few photographers I was beginning to feel a bit discouraged and stressed about finding the right photographer. They were either booked, not enough experience, or just didn't feel right. When I trekked over to LA from OC in traffic on a weeknight, I really questioned whether or not this would be worth the drive. But the moment I walked into Cat's studio I felt relieved, seeing all their beautiful work in front of me, she answered all the questions I had and made me feel comfortable. They are so professional and definitely know what they're doing because they've been through and seen it all. As soon as I left the meeting I knew I had to book them right away and also because I had someone else with the same wedding date on my tail! They were over our budget range for our photographer, but your wedding pictures will last a lifetime, the pictures turned out amazing and they truly captured every moment of our wedding. Thank you so much!

This is a highly professional wedding photography outfit. Cat and Adi are both great photographers, with a great instinct for what shots will work. They photograph in a documentary style which adds life to the photos beyond the usual wedding photo standard fare. Cat and Adi manage to get great photos without being intrusive or obstructive, and they manage to use their cameras to add to the festivity of the occassion. They both have great personalities and helped make our guests feel at ease. And the photos are just incredible. We could not have asked for a better record of this most memorable day of our lives. If you are looking for a wedding photographer, look no further. You definitely want this team to photograph your wedding.

Thanks to next Exit Photography, I have the most gorgeous pictures! The quality of their photography is out of this world. My shots were incredible--the variety, the use of natural light, the angles, the backgrounds--every shot has such warmth, depth, drama, heart and soul! Next Exit is extremely professional, responsive and attentive, too. Plus, they do a great blog of your big day, which is SO fun to share with wedding guests and all your family and friends! I highly, highly recommend Next Exit to beautifully capture your most beautiful memories forever and ever!

Next Exit is pricey, but Cat and Adi are the best--so much more than wedding photographers, they helped us find so many other vendors. Only caveat: make sure you know which one (Cat or Adi) will be your photographer before the wedding--they only guarantee that one of them will be there.
