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

David Winegar is a fine art photographer whose work explores the landscapes, wildlife, weather, and extraordinary moments of Park City and the American West. Guided by an active imagination and a deep appreciation for wild places, David believes meaningful photographs often come from knowing a subject well—returning through changing light, seasons, weather, and time to discover what a single visit might never reveal.

A Relationship With Place. Lonely Pinyon Pine is one such example—a centuries-old tree rooted in exposed bedrock overlooking Dead Horse Point. David has returned to it more than fifteen times, through summer thunderstorms, quiet winter mornings after fresh snow, and moonless nights filled with stars. Each visit reveals something different and deepens his understanding of this remarkable survivor.

Balancing Act, another ancient pinyon pine clinging to the edge of a cliff in Canyonlands National Park, reflects the same fascination with endurance and time. Through repeated journeys to places such as these, familiar subjects become more than scenery; they develop character, history, and story.

Photographic Artistry. David looks for moments when nature becomes more than a traditional photograph. Snowstorm Sheet Music, captured during a winter blizzard, resembles a fine art sketch—the starlings becoming notes, the branches a musical staff, and falling snow the paper upon which nature writes its score. Beneath the imagery is a universal metaphor: in life’s storms, we all need something to hold onto. Hold fast to faith, family, and one another, and even the fiercest storms can be endured.

Imagination and Pre-Visualization. Many of David’s photographs begin in his imagination long before he picks up the camera. Sovereign of the Storm began with a vision: to portray the resilience and fortitude of Utah’s mountain goats enduring subzero winters among precipitous cliffs. David repeatedly ventured above 11,000 feet during winter storms until, in the midst of a blizzard, the vision became reality—a mountain goat standing resolute on a snow-covered cliff, facing into the tempest.

Close to Home. Some of David’s most meaningful subjects are found along the trails of Park City and its surrounding mountains. 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, captures an extraordinary instant of movement and has become one of his signature works. A large presentation of the photograph is permanently displayed at Park City’s Swaner Preserve & EcoCenter.

The Fine Art Experience. After years of representation in Park City art and interior design stores, David now works directly with collectors. He personally oversees each limited-edition artwork, helping select materials, framing, sizing, and placement to complement the collector’s décor and lighting. Every piece is signed and numbered and accompanied by a Certificate of Authenticity. There are no impersonal carts or automated checkouts; each work is a collaboration. Transparent pricing and customer feedback reflect a commitment to value and personal service. For larger pieces, David offers complimentary in-home presentations, material samples, lighting guidance, and professional installation for a complete gallery-level experience.

At the heart of David’s photography are artistry, emotion, story, and a sense of belonging to the natural world. His hope is to create photographs that invite viewers to linger, discover something unexpected, and perhaps feel, for a moment, what it was like to be there. And when an image connects, perhaps it is because it reflects something you have lived, something you love, or somewhere you long to experience.

What we love, we must protect.
