Ernest understood the assignment and he killed it. We were drawn to his background in concert photography, as concerts are one of our favorite activities. Our wedding was going to be wild and unconventional and we wanted our photos to reflect that. Ernest is so nice, so professional, so accommodating, and FAST. We had our photos back in about a week. We can’t recommend Ernest enough.

So many things I can jot down here about Ernie and his wife Geena. They made our wedding experience even more amazing then we would have ever thought! Ernie had a vision of what he wanted and somehow that vision fit exactly into what me and my wife imagined but even better! To say the shots were perfect would be an understatement. Him and his wife Geena are the absolute best! He sent us the edited photos back so quickly as well. You can tell this man and his wife are very passionate about what they do and it showed on the biggest days of our lives! The shots look straight out of a magazine! Can’t wait to have him photograph our future events we plan! Ernie and his wife/assistant Geena are stand up individuals and are so warming to be around! The passion that eminates from Ernie for his photography shows that he will go big places with his passion! Thank you from the bottom of mine and my wife’s hearts!

About this vendor
Ernest Nunez
OWNER
Run the Good Race, formerly Ernest Nunez Photography, is a wedding photography business based in Palm Springs, CA. It began in late 2022 and quickly gained a following and momentum in portrait, event, and music photography. What started off as a photography business in music and concert photography, has now progressed into an event, wedding, and portrait setting. The business uses the extensive skills, knowledge, and captivity from music and concert photography and brings that cinematic vibe to couples like you, looking for a creative edge in their prominent wedding gallery.
My name is Ernest and I am a freelance photographer looking to bring my edge and captivity from live music photography to the wedding game! I am a husband and father of two beautiful girls no older than 5 years old who all share my passion for photography.
I bring a fast, efficient, and extensive knowledge of the camera, as well as the lighting and exposure comps, to the wedding arena. My ability to work well within the means and improvising comes from shooting in the inconsistent and challenging, yet rewarding, environment which is concert photography.

I’m Jesse! I’ve been behind the camera for 5+ years, and fell in love with filming because of the story telling and emotions that live in every moment. Weddings give me the chance to capture those once-in-a-lifetime memories so you can relive them for many years.

stance, his fun prompts given to us and our wedding party helped to capture our natural expressions and really made it an enjoyable experience as it made us feel at at ease. It was surprising to have received our photos in less than a month with the amount of photos that we got in our bundle plus touchups. The photos were also packaged in a lovely gift box. It was the attention to detail, professionalism and energy that I would recommended anyone to Ernest Nunez Photography.
