Award-Winning Landscape & Wildlife Photography

Park City & The American West

Welcome!

Welcome

My name is David Winegar, and I'm the owner of Park City Photography LLC.

As a Utah native, I've spent more than two decades photographing the wildlife of Park City and the landscapes of the American West. Along the way, I've come to appreciate that the finest photographs are rarely created by chance. They begin with curiosity, patience, careful preparation, and often a willingness to return to the same place again and again until nature offers something extraordinary.

I hope these photographs celebrate your love of wilderness, wildlife, and the remarkable places that still exist around us. More than beautiful scenery, I hope they tell stories—moments that invite wonder, curiosity, reflection, and perhaps even remind us of our own journey through life.

Landscape photography has taught me that every place has its own rhythm. The seasons change, storms arrive unexpectedly, and light transforms familiar scenes into something entirely new. Many of my favorite images have come after countless visits, waiting for conditions that may last only a few seconds. Occasionally, preparation meets good fortune, as it did with Snowstorm Sheet Music.

Wildlife photography requires a different kind of patience. Before I ever raise a camera, I spend time simply observing—learning an animal's habits, understanding its behavior, and waiting quietly for a genuine moment to unfold. Sometimes that means days, weeks, or even months in the field. If I'm fortunate, that preparation leads to photographs like Baby Osprey, Waiting for Mother or Leap of Faith, an internationally recognized image of a Park City red fox carrying dinner home to her waiting pups.

The photographs you'll find here are created with a camera in real places, under real skies, at a time when digitally generated imagery is increasingly presented as photography. While technology continues to evolve, my commitment remains the same: to bear witness to authentic moments in the natural world. If you'd like to learn more, I invite you to visit my Transparency page.

Whether it's the quiet elegance of Full Moon Rising over McPolin Barn, the strength of a Majestic Moose in the Tetons, the resilience of Winter's Watchman high in Utah's mountains, or the simplicity of a black-and-white photograph like Balancing Act, each image represents an experience that I consider a privilege to have witnessed.

In 2025, I closed my Park City gallery to work directly with collectors. I found that no one could answer questions about the artwork better than the person who created it. Whether you're considering archival print processes, presentation options, lighting, framing, or installation, you'll work directly with me from beginning to end.

Because every home and business is different, every piece is individually produced to complement the space where it will live. There are no shopping carts or distant fulfillment centers—only a conversation between the artist and the collector, and artwork crafted specifically for you.

Thank you for visiting Park City Photography.

I invite you to explore the galleries, enjoy the stories behind the photographs, and perhaps discover a piece that speaks to you and becomes part of your own home and your own story.

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 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 nature's rhythm 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.
