🏔️ PARK CITY PHOTOGRAPHY LLC — Est. 2003
Award-Winning Landscape & Wildlife Photography
of Park City & The American West
David Winegar is a fine art photographer and explorer of the light, landscapes, and wildlife of Park City and the American West. Guided by an active imagination and deep connection to wild places, David believes meaningful photographs are rarely found in passing. They come from knowing a place—returning through changing light, seasons, weather, and time until the familiar reveals something extraordinary.
A Relationship With Place. David often looks beyond the main attraction and returns to places until they reveal something more. Lonely Pinyon Pine, a centuries-old tree rooted in exposed bedrock above Dead Horse Point, has drawn him back dozens of times through thunderstorms, fresh snow, and star-filled nights. Near Mesa Arch, that same curiosity led him to Balancing Act, an ancient pinyon poised above the canyon. The final large-format silver photograph was hand-processed in traditional chemistry, face-mounted to protective acrylic, selected by jurors for museum exhibition, and awarded First Place in Black & White at the 2026 Utah State Fair.
Imagination and Pre-Visualization. Sovereign of the Storm began with a vision of a rarely witnessed moment—an Utah mountain goat enduring a winter storm among precipitous cliffs. David repeatedly ventured into blizzard conditions until vision and opportunity converged: a mountain goat standing resolute on a snow-covered cliff, facing into the tempest. It has become one of the defining images of his photography career, and one of his most cherished images.
Close to Home. Some of David’s most meaningful subjects are found along the trails and mountains of Park City. Baby Moose on Rob’s Trail captures an unexpected encounter along a favorite local trail, while Rob’s Trail Vista celebrates the landscape itself. Leap of Faith, his internationally acclaimed photograph of a Park City red fox exploding across McLeod Creek, has become one of his defining wildlife images. A large presentation is permanently displayed at Park City’s Swaner Preserve & EcoCenter.
The Fine Art Experience. After years of gallery representation in Park City, David now works directly with clients bringing the gallery into their home. There are no carts or remote fulfillment sites—David personally oversees every step of your artwork, from presenting fine art finishes and framing through final installation. Every limited edition is signed, numbered, and accompanied by a Certificate of Authenticity. For large format art, David offers in home consultations, listing advice and installation.
When you work with David, you receive personal service from the heart—and art with emotion, story, and a connection to the natural world. His images invite you into a decisive moment, a story unfolding, or a connection to a time or place. If you connect with his art—it is often something you have lived, or love.
And if you simply enjoy the galleries, David invites you to share a belief at the heart of his work: What we love, we must protect.
