🏔️ PARK CITY PHOTOGRAPHY LLC — Est. 2003
Award-Winning Landscape & Wildlife Photography
of Park City & The American West
My name is David Winegar, a Utah native and longtime resident of Park City, Utah. I have been doing business as Park City Photography LLC since 2003. I am an international award-winning fine art photographer whose work has met the high standard of museum exhibition.
I am passionate about continually learning and refining my craft—not only in photography, but in the art of presentation, from fine-art printing and artistic media to archival matting and beautiful custom framing. I am a 2015 graduate of the New York Institute of Photography. I am a member of the Professional Photographers of America and the Intermountain Professional Photographers Association, where I also serve on the Board of Directors.
My art celebrates the landscapes and wildlife of Park City, Utah’s High Uintas and desert country, the Tetons, Yellowstone, and the greater American West. I also enjoy street photography, capturing the character and spontaneous moments of life unscripted.
After years of representation in Park City galleries and interior design stores, I now work directly with collectors. I bring the gallery to your home or business—the best place to consider art within your décor, scale, and lighting. I personally guide you from selection through installation, and can even suggest simple changes to lighting.
I believe meaningful photographs come from truly knowing a place and its wildlife. That understanding comes from returning again and again—through changing seasons, weather, and light—until you begin to recognize its rhythms.
Lonely Pinyon Pine is one such example, a tree I have visited dozens of times: during thunderstorms, beneath star-filled skies, and after a gentle snowfall. I am fascinated by its age and resilience, and by the generations of human history that have unfolded during its lifetime.
More than a Photograph. I love creating images that become more than the photograph itself. Snowstorm Sheet Music is one example. During a winter storm, starlings took refuge in a tree against fierce winds—the birds becoming notes, the branches a musical staff, and the falling snow the paper upon which nature writes its score. Though it may resemble a drawing or sketch, the image is entirely photographic.
The Art of Presentation. For me, the creative process doesn’t end with the photograph. I carefully consider the surface that best complements each image—Exhibition Canvas, a traditional silver print, luminous aluminum, or textured Hahnemühle German rag paper—so the finished presentation complements the photograph itself.
Close to Home. In my Park City community, residents share a special affinity for our local wildlife and landscapes. Baby Moose on Rob’s Trail is one example, while Rob’s Trail Vista celebrates the landscape these animals call home. Leap of Faith captures a Park City red fox exploding across McLeod Creek. An international First Place photograph, permanently exhibited at Park City’s Swaner Preserve & EcoCenter.
The Iconic Scenes. While I typically avoid putting my tripod in the tripod holes of others, some iconic scenes are simply too breathtaking to ignore. Mesa Arch in Canyonlands is one of them, drawing visitors from around the world to witness its magical sunrises. And I will always treasure any moment spent photographing the barns beneath the Tetons—places where history, landscape, and extraordinary light come together.
Beyond the Icons: Beyond Mesa Arch, I discovered an Utah Pinyon Pine doing a Balancing Act—One leg anchored in stone, the other balancing on the cliff’s edge. This ancient pine stands resilient—twisted by wind and etched by sand—without spectacle or the audience of its more famous neighbor. Its limbs reach not for attention but to bear witness to the crowds who pass, its beauty unnoticed, on this cold winter morning. The scene was too good to pass up and became a study in monochrome.
More Than A Photograph: My landscape photography explores what a place truly offers to our human experience —beyond what is seen: its story, its emotion, and the metaphors of human life. I invite you to explore not only the landscape before you but the landscape within you.
From Imagination to Fine Art. I often envision a photograph in my mind’s eye, then venture into the field to bring that vision to life. Sovereign of the Storm began imagining an Utah mountain goat standing resolute in a fierce winter storm, high on a cliff face. I went to Utah’s high country venturing into deep snow and winter storms in search of that moment. After many trips—and a little luck—everything finally aligned. It remains one of my most cherished images.
The Fine Art Experience. After years of gallery representation in Park City, I now prefer to work directly with you. There are no carts or remote fulfillment sites because I personally oversee every step of your artwork—from selecting fine art finishes through installation and lighting.
