🏔️ PARK CITY PHOTOGRAPHY LLC — Est. 2003

Award-Winning Landscape & Wildlife Photography

Park City & The American West

Welcome

David Winegar is an award-winning landscape and wildlife photographer, based in Park City.

His work is rooted in traditional photographic practice and a commitment to documentary - realism. In a time increasingly influenced by artificial intelligence and digital alteration, his images are shaped by personal vision, hands-on fieldcraft, refined technique, and a steadfast dedication to authenticity (see Transparency).

Images often begin with pre-visualization—born from imagination—followed by research and fieldwork to bring them to life. This process often requires multiple visits to study subject, composition, and light across time and seasons. The vision is refined until fully realized as a work of art—or, at times, set aside in pursuit of another.

His work is defined by narrative and emotional depth, often accompanied by a brief artist’s note. Each piece explores not only what is seen, but what is felt. He finds a spiritual connection with nature and wildlife, where certain scenes serve as metaphors for the human experience.

These photographs are not merely of something—they are about something, and the journey of the creation (see The Creative Act).

Since 2003, his work has been featured in Park City furniture and design stores. Today, he prefers to work directly with clients for a better customer experience where all questions are answered by the artist. He offers finished samples, guidance on how to light art by examining existing lighting, and creates digital mockups so you can see how the work will look before production.

He also teaches The Art of Photography, providing personalized instruction for those seeking to advance their craft (see Instruction).

Additional insight into his work can be found through radio, television, and news interviews linked at the top of this website.

Art As Visual Metaphors of Life

If his work often resonates with you, it might be—something you’ve lived, or loved.

Examples - For The Scenes Below

“First Snow on Fall Leaves – La Sal Range” (near Moab, Utah)
The season’s first snowstorm informs the night, and at dawn a palette of colors is revealed—leaves of gold and crimson adorned in white. The scene captures a fleeting intersection of autumn and winter, a quiet reminder of nature’s rhythm and transitions in time.

“Snowstorm Sheet Music” (Wanship, Utah)
A winter gust front forces a flock of starlings to take refuge in a tree, where they turn and face into the storm. Snow and ice pelting their tiny bodies. They hang on with resilience, fortitude, and courage. In much the same way that we can endure life’s trials—hold fast, and have faith.

“When The Leaves Are Gone” (East Canyon, Utah)
At first light in East Canyon, an overnight windstorm has stripped the aspens bare, their fallen leaves surrendering to the ground. Bronze branches, like delicate lace, reach toward the sky—a quiet marker as autumn yields to winter.
