🏔️ PARK CITY PHOTOGRAPHY LLC — Est. 2003
Award-Winning Landscape & Wildlife Photography
of Park City & The American West
Welcome!
My name is David Winegar, a Utah native and longtime Park City resident. Since 2003, I have dedicated myself to capturing the beauty, character, and wild spirit of the American West, by creating award-winning photographic art.
In an age of artificial intelligence, my work remains rooted in authentic, camera-based photography—real moments captured by me, see Transparency for more.
Products: I offer museum-quality silver-halide prints beneath museum quality acrylic, fine-art canvas, aluminum, and archival papers from around the world.
Beyond the Image: Every photograph has a story. I share the inspiration, adventure, and discovery behind each image so you can experience not only what I saw, but what I felt. My collectors tell me that knowing the artist personally and the story behind their artwork creates a deeper connection and lasting value.
Learning A Place: Special places and wildlife draws me repeatedly back to discover its rhythms through changing seasons, weather, and light. With each visit, I learn more about a place and with each visit the photograph improves. My goal is to capture moments with emotional impact, not just a photograph of a place, but about a place.
Close to Home. The landscapes and wildlife of Park City hold special meaning because this is my home. For example, my photograph Leap of Faith, capturing a red fox leaping across McLeod Creek, earned an International First Place in Wildlife and is permanently exhibited at Park City's Swaner Preserve & EcoCenter.
Desert Landscapes. I have a deep love and reverence for the desert Southwest and maintain a second base of operations in Moab. My photograph Balancing Act was selected for exhibition in the prestigious 2026 Springville Museum of Art's 102nd Spring Salon. A scene of resilience—weathering life's storms while remaining firmly rooted in our values and all that we hold dear. In 2026, I organized and lectured at the Intermountain Professional Photographers Association’s Moab Photography Retreat.
Pre-Visualization. Most of my photographs begin in my imagination, long before I pick up a camera. I had always envisioned making a photograph of a mountain goat enduring a fierce winter blizzard on a remote cliff—an image that I had never seen photographed. Capturing it meant venturing above 11,000 feet into steep, dangerous terrain, snow, and severe weather. The result was a rare, extraordinary moment and one of my most cherished and celebrated photographs, Sovereign of the Storm.
Nature Mirrors Life. To my eyes and spirit—natures designs and seasons mirror the chapters of our own lives. First Snow on Fall Leaves — La Sal Range marks autumn's passage into winter, while When the Leaves Are Gone reveals the beauty of life's next chapter. The seasons are the markers by which I count time, each celebrated.
From Shutter to Fine Art. I personally and carefully select materials, textures, and finishes for each and every scene. For example, Snowstorm Sheet Music, has been mistaken for a hand-drawn sketch. I make this art piece on a German Hahnemühle cotton rag paper. Its natural white tone and texture echoes the softness of falling snow.
Connections. As you wander through my galleries, I invite you to discover what images speaks to your journey, your heart, and your spirit—not only in the landscape before you—but the landscape within you. We all have spirit animals, and locations that trigger a stirring in our hearts, and a fine art piece can bring us happiness.
Bespoke Service. I offer complimentary, no-obligation in-home consultations and installations for large format work. After learning the scenes that inspire you, I can share a curated selection from nearly three decades of photography—only a fraction of which appears on this website. Together, we can explore finishes, sizing, framing, and contemporary display options. After selecting a scene (s), I provide a digital mockup so you can see the result before manufacture. I can even suggest subtle lighting enhancements that bring a gallery-quality experience into your home. From inspiration to installation, I personally oversee every detail.
Savings. Working directly allows you to spend all of your money on art. You bypass gallery commissions, storefront costs, and interior designer commissions. You won’t find a shopping cart or checkout on my website, as I handle every detail in person. My art has been recognized on the national stage and juried for museum exhibitions.
My hope is that each photograph offers more than beauty—a connection to the natural world, a reflection of our own lives, and a reminder that what we love, we must protect. I would love to earn your business.

Snowstorm Sheet Music
2026 International Photographic Competition — Bronze Medal
Wanship, Utah
As a winter storm sweeps across the landscape, a flock of starlings takes refuge in a tree. Facing into the wind and snow, they hold fast with quiet resilience—in life we will face our own storms. Hold fast and have faith.
