The Art of Canine Portraiture
Welcome to Dogs on Paper, a boutique Sacramento studio specializing in artistic dog portraits. Through intentional minimalism, we create beautiful portraits that celebrate your dog as the work of art they truly are. Simplicity preserved, beauty unleashed.
Our Minimalist Approach
The beauty of simplicity.
Our paper backgrounds eliminate distractions, allowing your dog to be the true focus of every portrait. Through thoughtful composition and occasional artistic variations, we capture each dog's unique form, distinctive features, and natural character.
Portrait Collections
Sessions inspired by your dog.
We offer personalized portrait sessions that capture your dog's authentic personality through our artistic vision and calming approach. All sessions include a personalized gallery with select retouched images and access to our curated product collection.

The Monochrome Aesthetic
A return to photography's purest form.
Black & white photography strips away distractions and reveals your dog's heart through light, texture, and form. Our monochrome portraits offer timeless, sophisticated alternatives that will never go out of style. Every portrait can be transformed into stunning monochrome.
Monochrome versions of portrait images are available upon request.
Fine Art Products
A piece of your heart, as art.
