🏔️ PARK CITY PHOTOGRAPHY LLC — Est. 2003
Award-Winning Landscape & Wildlife Photography
of Park City & The American West
About. Based in Park City, Utah, David Winegar is an internationally acclaimed photographer whose photographic art celebrates the landscapes and wildlife of Park City and the American West. Each limited-edition art piece is personally signed and numbered.
Local Scenes. David’s photography celebrates the remarkable wildlife of Park City. A quick sampling here Baby Moose on Rob’s Trail is a local favorite, while Leap of Faith, photographed along Old Ranch Road became an internationally award-winning wildlife image and a hallmark wall hanging at the Park City’s Swaner Preserve & EcoCenter.
David also has an extensive collection of bird photographs, featuring local hummingbirds, eagles, ospreys, and ibis of Silver Creek. Explore his Park City Wildlife gallery for bull elk along Old Ranch Road, mule deer, coyotes, and more—all photographed in Summit County. His Wild Mustang collection celebrates the wild horses of Utah’s West Desert, with Winter Dreams earning multiple awards in juried competitions. His Colorado mustangs include Ridgeline Ruckus, photographed in the Little Book Cliffs. These images are available in a variety of fine art finishes for your home or business.
Beyond Park City. David’s work extends across the American West. Examples are his famous Bondurant Bull Moose of the Tetons or Gibbon River Bison, photographed in Yellowstone National Park. He is equally drawn to the Desert Southwest, where canyons carved by weather, time, and scenes informed by changing light reveal an ancient and majestic landscape. His decades long exploration of Arches National Park, Moab, and Dead Horse Point, museum exhibited Balancing Act from Canyonlands N.P.
Fine Art. David’s photographic art often transcends traditional photography. Snowstorm Sheet Music is one example. Captured during a winter blizzard, it appears like a fine art sketch, yet was created entirely in-camera—the birds becoming notes, the branches a musical staff, and falling snow the paper upon which nature writes its score.
Fine Art. David believes a photograph is not fully realized as fine art as a digital image alone; its physical presentation is part of the creative process. He carefully selects the materials, papers, and fine art finishes that best serve each piece—from organic canvas for wildlife to luminous metal for a Milky Way over McPolin Barn—and personally prints many of his images.
As Ansel Adams famously said, “The negative is the score, and the print is the performance.” David’s art is never simply sent off for anonymous online production. There are no shopping carts or automated checkouts; David personally handles every order and oversees each piece from image creation through its final presentation.
Imagination through Pre-Visualization. David is blessed with a creative and active imagination. Nearly all of his images begin in his mind before he goes afield to see if he can bring them to life. Sovereign of the Storm is his most recent example. David envisioned a mountain goat enduring winter in his home on a cliff face. A story of resilience in one of nature’s harshest environments. He repeatedly trekked into Utah’s high country during winter storms and captured one extraordinary moment at 11,000 feet.
Bringing the Gallery to Your Home or Business. After many years of representation in Park City interior design showrooms, David felt his clients would be better served by working directly with the him. He now offers complimentary in-home presentations of large format finished artwork, along with guidance on materials, sizing, and placement. He explores your vision, provides digital mockups, can suggest simple changes to lighting when needed, and coordinates professional art installation.
Photography as a Witness. For David, photographing the West is also about preserving a record of its wild places, wildlife, and extraordinary moments of weather and light. His work celebrates wilderness with a simple belief: what we love, we must protect.
His work is backed by a long history of satisfied customer testimonials and accolades earned through juried competitions and exhibitions.
If a piece of art strikes a chord with you, David would love to hear from you.
