🏔️ PARK CITY PHOTOGRAPHY LLC — Est. 2003
Award-Winning Landscape & Wildlife Photography
of Park City & The American West

David Winegar is a fine art photographer and explorer of the light, landscapes, and wildlife of Park City and the American West. It is in wild places, among wildlife, that David comes alive and feels his deepest connection to the natural world. He believes meaningful photographs come from knowing a place and its wildlife—returning through changing seasons, light, and weather, and waiting until all the players on nature’s stage align in a magical moment.

Nature’s Composition. Exploring a winter tempest near Wanship, David discovered Snowstorm Sheet Music—birds becoming notes, branches a musical staff, and falling snow the paper upon which nature writes its score. Though resembling a sketch, it is entirely photographic, rendered on fine art paper chosen to reveal the delicate snow and winter atmosphere. David personally and meticulously selects materials for each photography to support the scene and the emotion, with Fine Art the result.

Close to Home. David finds special meaning photographing the mountains and wildlife near his Park City home. Baby Moose on Rob’s Trail and Rob’s Trail Vista celebrate a beloved local trail, while Leap of Faith, a red fox leaping across McLeod Creek, is permanently displayed at Park City’s Swaner Preserve & EcoCenter.

A Relationship With Place. David finds in nature mirrors and metaphors for life. Lonely Pinyon Pine, a centuries-old tree rooted in bedrock above Dead Horse Point, has drawn him back dozens of times. Solitary and enduring, what has it witnessed—and what might it teach us about resilience, solitude, and time?

Nearby, Mesa Arch draws a daily pilgrimage for its almost spiritual sunrises. Yet just beyond the main event stands Balancing Act—quiet, resilient, and statuesque, unnoticed by those drawn to its famous neighbor. Perched on a cliff face with limbs outstretched, it quietly performs its own balancing act on the edge.

From Imagination to Fine Art. Sometimes the photograph exists first in David’s imagination. Sovereign of the Storm began as a vision of an Utah mountain goat standing resolute in a fierce winter storm. Repeated treks into Utah’s high country during blizzards finally brought that vision to life. As far as David knows, no similar image had been created. The photograph was named Best of Show at the 2026 Utah State Fair and received an Image of Excellence from the Photographic Society of America and Exceptional at Intermountain Professional Photographers Association photographic competition over a one month period!

The Fine Art Experience. After years of gallery representation in Park City, David now works directly with collectors, bringing the gallery experience into their homes. Some of Davids clients have shared their experiences here. There are no carts or remote fulfillment sites—David personally oversees every step of your artwork, from presenting fine art finishes and framing options to final installation. Shipping is available for all pieces, with assistance toward shipping costs for large-format artwork.

When you work with David, you receive personal service from the heart—and art born in the field, through his camera. Images with emotional impact and stories unfolding. If you connect with his work, perhaps it reflects something you have lived or loved, or simply strikes a deeper chord within you. His art also carries a reminder:

what we love, we must protect
