Award-Winning Landscape & Wildlife Photography

Park City & The American West

Welcome!

My name is David Winegar, owner of Park City Photography LLC . As a Utah native, I have devoted more than two decades to photographing the wildlife of Park City and the landscapes of the American West. Simply click any underlined photograph title to view the image being discussed.

Each photograph is the result of careful preparation, years of technical and artistic study, and a deep passion for photography. To truly understand a subject, I return to the same places again and again, waiting for extraordinary light, changing weather, and the right season to align. Wildlife photography requires countless hours learning an animal's habits and movements, then patiently waiting for the decisive moment. My goal is to capture a fleeting instant that inspires wonder and invites curiosity.

One example is Leap of Faith, an internationally recognized photograph of a red fox created after nearly a month of observation in Park City, my home for more than 36 years. Those decades have given me a deep understanding of the rhythms of its seasons and the habits of its wildlife, reflected in photographs such a ‍Robs Trail Baby Moose, and When The Leaves Are Gone.

I use traditional camera-based photography to bear witness to real moments, in real places, under real skies—at a time when artificial intelligence is increasingly blurring the line between authentic photography and digitally constructed imagery. See Transparency for more on honesty and truth in photography.

Whether photographing an ancient pinyon pine beneath the Milky Way at Dead Horse Point Lonely Pinyon Pine, a bull moose at sunset in Grand Teton National Park Majestic Moose, or a mountain goat enduring a winter storm high in Utah's Uinta Mountains Winters Watchman, every photograph begins with patience, preparation, and the fieldcraft and being present when the moment finally reveals itself

My hope is to create photographs that tell a story, stir emotion, and reconnect you with places, memories, and moments that matter.

At no charge, I personally help you select the right image, presentation, size, and finish for your home or business. You work directly with the artist who created the photograph and can recommend the presentation best suited to the scene, your décor, and your lighting. Every piece is custom made for you.

You're investing in years of preparation, countless mornings waiting in the cold before sunrise, entire nights spent on remote mountain peaks, and the fleeting moment when patience, experience, and a little luck finally came together.

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.

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.
