🏔️ PARK CITY PHOTOGRAPHY LLC — Est. 2003

Award-Winning Landscape & Wildlife Photography

Park City & The American West

Artist Statement

Welcome! My name is David Winegar, owner of Park City Photography LLC in Park City, Utah. A Utah native, I have devoted more than two decades to photographing the wildlife of Park City, Utah's mountains, deserts, state and national parks, the Tetons and Yellowstone, and the landscapes of the American West.

Each photograph is the result of years of study, careful preparation, and a deep passion for photography. Most begin long before dawn and after repeated journeys waiting patiently for the first light to awaken a landscape or for a fleeting wildlife encounter that lasts only an instant. A year in the field may produce only a handful of photographs that make it all worthwhile. Park City is an amazing place with unique wildlife Leap of Faith‍ ‍Robs Trail Baby Moose, and Landscapes, When The Leaves Are Gone.

Using traditional camera-based photography, I create images of real things, in real places under real skies. Whether photographing an ancient pinyon pine beneath the Milky Way at Dead Horse Point (Lonely Pinyon Pine), a bull moose at sunrise in Grand Teton National Park (Majestic Moose), or a mountain goat standing above 11,000 feet in Utah's Uinta Mountains (Winters Watchman), every photograph begins with patience, preparation, and being present when light and the decisive moment come together.

My goal is to create photographic art that tells a story, stirs emotion, inspires reflection, and brings the beauty of the natural world into your home.

Every artwork reflects years of learning through professional competition and the feedback of judges and juries. I personally oversee every step from helping you choose the right scene, the finish that goes best for your decor, and oversee every aspect of your arts creation. Then I personally hand sign and number your personal art piece.

Photography has taken me from remote mountain peaks and desert canyons to museum exhibitions and international recognition. Yet my greatest reward is knowing that one of my photographs has become part of someone's daily life—displayed in a home or workplace where it can be enjoyed for years to come.

Thank you for visiting Park City Photography. I invite you to explore the galleries and discover the images that have inspired my life's work.

Art As Visual Metaphors of Life - Examples

If his work often resonates with you, it might be something you have lived or loved

First Snow on Fall Leaves

The season's first snowstorm arrives overnight, and dawn reveals a stunning palette of gold and crimson leaves delicately dusted in white. The photograph captures the fleeting intersection of autumn and winter—a quiet reminder of nature's rhythm and for many, a calendar of the ever-changing passage of time.

Snowstorm Sheet Music

As a winter gust front sweeps across the landscape, a flock of starlings takes refuge in a tree. They face into the storm as snow and ice pelt their tiny bodies, holding on with quiet resilience. Like the tiny birds, with courage, faith, and endurance, the storms we face will eventually pass.

When the Leaves Are Gone

At first light in East Canyon, an overnight windstorm has stripped the aspens bare, their fallen leaves carpeting the forest floor. Delicate bronze branches reach skyward like intricate lace, marking another chapter of natures transition from autumn to winter.
