🏔️ PARK CITY PHOTOGRAPHY LLC — Est. 2003

Award-Winning Landscape & Wildlife Photography

Park City & The American West

Welcome

David Winegar is an award-winning landscape and wildlife photographer, based in Park City.

His work is rooted in a commitment to real light, real moments and real places.

In an era where artificial intelligence and advanced software can render scenes indistinguishable from reality, his work delivers authenticity.

His art often begins with pre-visualization—born from imagination—then shaped through research and fieldwork. This process typically requires multiple visits to study the subject, examine composition, and understand the light across different times of day, weather conditions and seasons. Over time, the scene is developed and repeatedly photographed until a compelling work of art is realized (e.g., Lone Pinyon Pine, and Baby Osprey Waiting for Mother).

A hallmark of his craft are images defined by narrative and emotional depth He often provides an expressive written reflection about the moment (three examples below). Each piece explores not only what is seen, but what is felt. His photographs are not merely of something—they are about something, reflecting both the subject and the journey of creation (see The Creative Act). Certain scenes to him, serve as metaphors for the human experience.

His business model changed in 2025, with his desire to work directly and exclusively with clients to create a more personal and elevated customer experience. He provides bespoke service from your initial vision through final installation. He offers the stories behind each scene for a deeper connection to the artwork. He also provides expert recommendations on materials, finishes, and lighting analysis, ensuring a gallery-level presentation in the home or business.

David also teaches The Art of Photography, providing personalized instruction for those seeking to advance their skills (see Instruction).

Art As Visual Metaphors of Life

If his work often resonates with you, it might be—something you’ve lived, or loved.

“First Snow on Fall Leaves – La Sal Range” (near Moab, Utah)
The season’s first snowstorm takes place overnight, and dawn reveals a stunning palette of colors —leaves of gold and crimson adorned in white. The scene captures a fleeting intersection of autumn and winter, a quiet marker of nature’s rhythm and transitions in time.

“Snowstorm Sheet Music” (Wanship, Utah)
A winter gust front forces a flock of starlings to take refuge in a tree. They turn and face into the storm with snow and ice pelting their tiny bodies. They hang on with resilience, fortitude, and courage. In much the same way that we can endure life’s trials—hold fast, and have faith.

“When The Leaves Are Gone” (East Canyon, Utah)
At first light in East Canyon, an overnight windstorm has stripped the aspens bare, their fallen leaves surrendering to the ground. Bronze branches, like delicate lace, reach toward the sky—another chapter in time as autumn yields to winter.
