Award-Winning Landscape & Wildlife Photography
Park City & The American West

Formatted for Desktop computers

About. International award-winning fine art photographer David Winegar has spent more than three decades capturing the wild beauty of Park City, Utah, and the American West—from intimate wildlife encounters and decisive moments of action to alpine meadows and the sculpted red-rock canyons of the Southwest.

In the wilderness, David finds serenity, wonder, and refuge from the modern world. Through his art, David brings the beauty, serenity, and restorative spirit of nature into your home or business. Each limited-edition piece is personally hand-signed and numbered.

Background & Education. A Utah native, David has operated Park City Photography since 2003. His photographic education spans decades of continuing study and includes graduation from the New York Institute of Photography in 2015.

Recognition. David’s photography has earned recognition across an unusually broad range of genres. His wildlife photograph Leap of Faith earned International First Place—Wildlife—in the 2007 Art Wolfe Photography Competition. Better & Better received First Place—Street Photography—in the 2016 International Masters of Color Awards, while Snowstorm Sheet Music earned a 2026 International Bronze Medal in Bird Photography.

His landscapes were juried into the Springville Museum of Art’s Spring Salon in 2024, 2025, and 2026. David also earned back-to-back First Place awards in Black & White Photography at the Utah State Fair, culminating in 2026 Best of Show for Sovereign of the Storm.

Photographic Art. David personally prints much of his work using carefully selected fine-art media from leading makers around the world. He also offers distinctive large-format Chromogenic Silver Prints, individually handcrafted on Fujiflex® photographic paper and fused beneath museum acrylic. Other presentations include ChromaLuxe® aluminum, renowned for brilliant color and clarity, exhibition canvas, and archival fine art paper. View Art Prices & Finishes.

Educator. David mentors photographers through private tutoring, field instruction, and workshops. With bases in Park City and Moab, he offers opportunities for alpine, desert landscape, and wildlife photography. David created and hosted the 2026 Moab Photography Retreat, an immersive field experience in southern Utah, where he also served as a featured lecturer on landscape photography.

Wilderness in His DNA. David’s connection to wild places extends far beyond photography. A lifelong outdoorsman, he spent years guiding and teaching fly fishing and outdoor skills for Jans Mountain Outfitters in Park City and Local Waters in Huntsville, Utah. He later founded Royal Wulff Flyfishing & Guide Service. A graduate of the U.S. Air Force SERE School (Survival, Evasion, Resistance and Escape), David’s life outdoors continues to shape how he experiences—and photographs—the natural world.

Preserving Wild Places. David proudly supports The Nature Conservancy, Sierra Club, Natural Resources Defense Council, Southern Utah Wilderness Alliance, and Rocky Mountain Elk Foundation. He is a Life Member of Trout Unlimited, and also supports Bridge 21, the American Cancer Society, and Huntsman Cancer Institute.

Photography as a Witness. As wilderness and wildlife face growing pressures, photography can bear witness to what remains—and remind us what is at stake.

Art As Visual Metaphors of Life - Examples

If his images make your heart race, its something you have lived or loved

First Snow on Fall Leaves

The season's first snowstorm arrives overnight, and dawn unveils brilliant gold and crimson leaves lightly dusted with fresh snow. For just a few hours, autumn and winter share the landscape, creating a quiet reminder of natures rhythms and the passage of time.

Snowstorm Sheet Music

As a winter gust front sweeps across the landscape in Wanship, Utah. This forces 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. Holding strong, their courage, faith, and endurance, 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.
