🏔️ 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 founding Park City Photography in 2003, I have devoted myself to capturing the extraordinary landscapes, remarkable wildlife, and untamed spirit of the American West—transforming nature into award-winning fine art photography.

Authentic Photography: My art is born in the field—through decades of journeys into the wilderness, countless miles traveled, mornings before sunrise, and long hikes home after dark. I trust you value images that are earned by an artist using a camera, and not generated by AI. Learn more by visiting my Transparency page.

Fine Art Products: I create museum-quality, hand-processed silver-halide photographic prints face-mounted beneath museum-grade acrylic. I also offer exhibition-quality canvas with optional frames, ChromaLuxe aluminum prints, and loose prints from media sourced from around the world. For each image I select media that best complements the character, beauty, and spirit of each scene.

Beyond the Image: For every photograph, there is a story of inspiration, adventure, and discovery. I share these experiences so you can appreciate not only what I saw, but what I felt. My collectors tell me that knowing the artist and the story behind each photograph makes their art more meaningful with their own personal connection.

Learning a Place: Certain places draw me back —time and again. With each visit, I discover something new through changing seasons, weather, and light. My understanding deepens, and through this process. I want to create for you, not just a photograph of a place—but a photograph about a place.

Close to Home: Park City’s landscapes and wildlife hold a special place for local residents. My Leap of Faith, (2006) earned first place in Art Wolfes International Wildlife Competition, with international recognition. This rare scene is now permanently displayed as a large wall hanging at Park City’s Swaner Preserve & EcoCenter.

Desert Landscapes: I have a deep love and reverence for the extraordinary light and landscapes of the desert Southwest. I even maintain a second base of operations in Moab, Utah. My photograph Balancing Act is an example of that work, and selected by judges for the 2026 Springville Museum of Art - 102nd Spring Salon!

Private Instruction: I offer private photography instruction and guided adventures. Click on the 2026 Moab Photography Retreat as a recent example.

Pre-Visualization: Many of my photographs begin in my mind’s eye. I envisioned a mountain goat enduring a fierce blizzard on a remote alpine cliff. Bringing that vision to life required repeated journeys into steep terrain, deep snow, and severe winter weather at elevations above 11,000 feet. Despite the slim odds of success, I persevered until the image I had imagined became reality—and Sovereign of the Storm was born.

Nature: Echos of Our Lives: To me, nature's changing seasons mirror the chapters of our own lives. First Snow on Fall Leaves — La Sal Range captures autumn's passage into winter, while When the Leaves Are Gone reveals the quiet beauty of what follows. The seasons are how I mark the passage of time, each one welcomed and celebrated.

Connections: As you wander through my galleries, I invite you to discover which images speak to your journey, your heart, and your emotions. Consider not only the landscape before you, but the landscape within you., if you see a scene that triggers a fond memory or emotion. We all have certain places, scenes, or spirit animals that stir something deep in our hearts. When a photograph captures that connection, it becomes more than art on a wall, it becomes a celebration of your own journey.

Bespoke Service: I offer complimentary, no-obligation in-home consultations for large-format fine art photography. I'll bring finished art and material samples to your home or business, and help you select images inspired by places and subjects meaningful to you.

The Value of Buying Direct: After exhibiting in four Park City storefront galleries, I now offer my award-winning fine art directly to collectors, without gallery commissions or markups. My dream customer values quality and service at a price that reflects the finished art piece, the art, and his or her reputation.

You won't find a shopping cart on my website. Instead, I personally guide each purchase, from inspiration to installation.

Thank you for visiting!

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 too will face storms, hold fast and have faith, trusting that the storm will soon pass.

First Snow on Fall Leaves

2025 Springville Museum of Art — 101st Annual Spring Salon, Juried Selection
La Sal Range, Utah

With a heavy snowfall forecast overnight, I arrived before dawn, awaiting the first snow crowning the brilliant gold and green leaves of autumn. A visual reminder that every ending marks a new beginning.
