🏔️ PARK CITY PHOTOGRAPHY LLC — Est. 2003
Award-Winning Landscape & Wildlife Photography
of Park City & The American West

Welcome!

My name is David Winegar, an Utah native and longtime resident of Park City. I have been fortunate to pursue my passion for creating and selling photographic art since 2003. Over the years, my work has received international recognition and has even been selected by jurors for museum exhibitions.

Subject Matter. My art celebrates the landscapes and wildlife of Park City, Utah’s High Uintas, and the deserts of the American Southwest. I am equally drawn to the Tetons and Yellowstone—America’s Serengeti. I also enjoy street photography, capturing character, humanity, and the spontaneous moments of life unscripted.

Knowing a Place. Meaningful photographs come from truly knowing a place and its wildlife. I return again and again—through changing seasons and weather, seeking dramatic skies, and searching for magical light. Over time, I learn the rhythms of a place and hope to capture a fleeting moment that reveals its essence. My goal is to create art that is not simply of a place, but about a place—with a story unfolding.

More Than a Photograph. Often described as having a painterly quality, my art is a product of the scenes I choose to photograph, and the materials I select for its physical presentation. In Snowstorm Sheet Music, songbirds becoming musical notes, bare branches their staff, and the snowy sky the paper upon which nature writes its score. The presentation is on a beautiful German Hahnemühle textured archival media, or a special exhibition canvas — critical to replicating the winter scene.

Close to Home. Some of the photographs closest to my heart celebrate the wildlife and landscapes of Park City. Baby Moose on Rob’s Trail captures an intimate encounter close to home, while Rob’s Trail Vista showcases the landscape itself. Another image, titled Leap of Faith, became an important turning point in my career—a Park City red fox exploding across McLeod Creek. Photographed in 2006, is now permanently exhibited at Park City’s Swaner Preserve & EcoCenter and a first place international winner.

The Desert. I love photographing the deserts of the Southwest spend part of the year in Moab, Utah. My Balancing Act—an ancient pinyon pine balanced on a cliff face—overlooks the vast basin below. I chose to photograph the scene in black-and-white and the art a large-format silver print, hand-processed in traditional wet chemistry and fused beneath museum acrylic. The museum juried art piece has remarkable visual dimension and depth—an image you feel you can walk into.

From Imagination to Fine Art. Many images begin before I pick up a camera. Sovereign of the Storm was the result of pre-visualization. The photograph captures a Utah mountain goat standing resolute on an exposed cliff in a fierce winter storm, achieved through repeated trips in blizzard conditions in Utah’s >11,000 foot - high country.

Mirrors and Metaphors of Life. First Snow on Fall Leaves — La Sal Range captures the beauty of one season giving way to another, while When the Leaves Are Gone — East Canyon Sunrise is the next chapter, from autumn to winter. To me, these scenes are markers of time, and reflections of our own seasons of life. Marriage, the kids leaving home, or a new baby. As you browse my galleries, I hope you enjoy the landscapes before you— and ask you to consider my art—and the landscape within you.

The Fine Art Experience. After years of gallery representation in Park City, I now work directly with clients, bringing the gallery to you. You can see and compare finishes in the actual space and light where the art will live. I present a variety of finishes, examine your current lighting and can offer simple upgrades. By working directly with me, you receive museum-quality art without the substantial gallery markup, along with personal service from the artist himself—not a salesperson or employee.
