I ran into @dopepawtraits online and loved all the pet portraits, while navigating the Instagram , I noticed some pop up events that were coming up , so I decided to take advantage of one of his mini shoots and took my precious dog Rosie to get a few photos in a few mins he was able to connect with my dog , keep her calm and take the most beautiful pictures , I was so pleased with the shoot that I booked a birthday shoot and have visited multiple pop up events Raul is the Best - Rosie’s Mom Kita
I had the pleasure of bringing my dog & baby Ferg for a photoshoot with Dopepawtraits at one of his pop ups. The opportunity to do a microsession allowed me to bond with my pup but also supply me with a physical memory of our time together. The experience was awesome - super respectful, friendly and great with the pup. 10/10 will set up a session again soon.

My Shiba inu puppy can be a handful sometimes but during our shoot she was able to take some amazing shots. It was easy to do everything and I definitely would go back because my puppy looked so good. If anyone is looking for some pawtraits they should definitely do it with Dopepawtraits. -Dilla’s mom Mika
He took awesome pictures of Lazarus. They came out so great. I would 100% recommend him for sure.

I had the best experience with Dopepawtraits! My dog was very nervous and not the easiest pup to photograph but every image came out beautifully! Lots of patience and kindness eventually put Beverly at ease. Best of all, a portion of the package price supported Camp Happy Tails, where I rescued my pup from. I highly recommend booking a shoot with Dopepawtraits.
-Beverly’s mom Jenna
We were lucky to meet Dopepawtraits in a fundraiser event where we took some photos of my dog Motas. It was fun easy the backdrops were beautiful the photos were deliver to us fast and they came out soo good. Photos are great, photographer is very professional and a dog lover. We highly recommend him and we will continue using his services ❤️ thank you!

We stumbled upon them at the Pet expo and are so glad that we did! The photos are so professional looking and some of the best pictures of my dogs. After the session, I was a little discouraged because my dogs were so distracted and did not want to sit still AT ALL. However, the pictures delivered were phenomenal. I will definitely be coming back and will recommend to everyone!

Raul is an absolute artist when it comes to pet portraits he did a great shoot with my dog Prince and I adore all the photos he is. An amazing artist I recommend anyone who's interested in photos of their pet to hire him - Prince’s mom April
My dog Honey and I did one of the micro pop-ups in the park around Christmas 2022. I was worried with such a short session that it would be hard to get a great photo, but we ended up with multiple amazing shots! He also did a great job touching up the 5 finals I selected. I can't wait to get more photos in the future! Honey’s mom Amanda
Raul has photographed our dog and guinea pigs 4 times now. Each time has been an awesome experience. Raul does such a great job of capturing their unique personalities on camera. Our dog is very hyper and always wants to play, and our guinea pigs are pretty shy with people they don't know well, but Raul always manages to get what he needs from them to get the perfect photo. Every photoshoot has been so fun for our family. Raul is such a genuinely nice guy who loves animals, and his work really shows this. I look forward to our next photoshoot together and many more to come!

Raul did an amazing job with my pups especially one of them who was really nervous about the flashing lights he was able to capture her beauty even though she kept running away. Definitely recommend and I will definitely be booking again.

Raul has come to Camp Happy Tails NYC Rescue several times to shoot our dogs in need. He is not only a great photographer who is so patient and gentle with our rescue dogs, he is also a man of integrity and generosity. Raul always supports our Camp as best he can.
If you want great quality PAWTRAITS of your fur-babies, please book your appointment with Raul.

Raul was so patient with my dog Prince. He was professional and courteous. His studio has TONS of props and backdrops for your pup!
BOOK HIM! You and your Pup deserve it !
-Prince’s Mom Yolanda
The photoshoot I had scheduled with Raul was amazing. He was on time and set up a studio backdrop in my living room easily and promptly. My cat absolutely adored him so it was easy for him to get some great shots of my cat . I would definitely recommend that you get your pet photos done with dopepawtraits. Poppa’s mom Sarah
Raul was very friendly and treated my pups as I do. With love and care.
My Bruno and kota were so calm that they started falling asleep. We had to perk them up for a few more photos. Professionalism and respect go a long way . The finish product is just beautiful and the photos captures my dogs expression beautifully.
We lost a dog in 2020 and our one regret is not getting her pawtraits done.
My next step is purchasing a nice large print for home and office.
This is excellent for you and your pets or as a gift for the pet lover in your family.

Working with Raul was so much fun. He was incredibly patient with my dog Cocoa and I’m very grateful for that. Cocoa kept running away and was very active but Raul was able to capture some great shots. The shoot was very professional and went extremely well. I highly recommend shooting with Dopepawtraits! - cocoa’s mom Kristina
Raul is amazing!!! I have 2 energetic yellow labs; from the minute Raul walked in they were enamored with him. He set up inside and was so loving and professional. Next he moved out back to the pool. I don’t know who had more fun-the dogs or Raul!!!!! I highly, highly recommend Raul and absolutely love the pics!!

My girlfriend and I booked Raul to shoot our dog and two guinea pigs. We have a very hyperactive yorkiepoo, and Raul was very patient with her the entire time. He put our guinea pigs at ease for their first ever professional photo shoot. The photos he took came out beautifully, and we can't wait to set up another session for Christmas. I highly recommend Dopepawtraits!-Cody
dopepawtraits was truly amazing , he was very professional and so good with my angel baby that can be a uncooperative hand full lol she is a huge love bug and he played with her and embraced all her hugs and kisses that got her to cooperate. the pictures came out beautiful and we will be using you again for all holidays and birthdays. thank you so much again five stars -Baby’s mom Angela
I am a healthy cafe owner and was recommended to check out Raul by one of my customers who is a dog Walker. I reached out to this gentlemen with the idea of doing a pop-up shoot and he happily agreed. I got to meet him. Punctual and professional. He showed on time with no issues. He had a very nice light and backdrop setup. What I appreciate about him is that he knows how to handle the animals while on the set. The photos came out very nicely. I’m excited to host another shoot when we enter again in the warmer season. I would highly recommend him if you want cute but quality images of your fur babies .

I met Dope Pawtraits at the LI Pet Expo 2023. I loved the set up but most of all his patience. My dog, Kona, was very excited and needed a few minutes to focus. He provided that and so much more. We now have beautiful pictures of her that will last a lifetime. 10/10 recommend this small business. Thanks Dope Pawtraits! - Kona’s mom Stephanie
Yesterday I brought a client’s dog over to @misfitsnutrition for a pop up shoot.
WOW! Raul has a special talent with dogs. He got this rambunctious puppy to sit & pose for photos. It takes a special person to work with dogs & he sure has that something! The pictures came out beautiful! If you want pictures of your pet. This is the guy to go to-Cassie Loki’s dog walker
Raul came to photograph our pups this weekend and he was so patient, professional and understanding. One of our dogs was afraid of the flash and sounds and he was extra kind and gentle - not to mention very patient- and managed some amazing shots with him as well as some true modelesque pawtraits of our crazy energetic puppy! If you are looking to capture the true soul and personality of your fur family members, this is your guy! Apollo and ethina’s mom Amanda
We recently had Raul with Dopepawtraits shoot my little girl Georgia's 3rd Birthday Pawty and we couldn't have been happier with the experience and the photos we received! Raul was so patient and loving with all of the pups and we were completely blown away with the photos❤
Highly recommend!! Georgia’s mom Andrea
Love having such cute pics of my dog as well as full family ones! Cannot wait to do another shoot!

Was lucky enough to get to work with Dopepawtraits at the long island pet expo. There was a lot going on and the photographer was very patient with my nervous pup.
The raw shots were fantastic and it was a very quick turn around.
We can’t wait to book another session!

I always wondered how camp happy tails always has the most amazing photos of there adoptable dogs.I met their secret weapon at a Halloween pop up fund raiser mini shoot. Raul was so kind and loving , he even carried my old girl down the stairs.The pictures came out amazing .I’m definitely looking forward to her valentines shoot.Not only we’re the pictures great but my dog got lots of extra loving- Ginger’s mom Liz
Raul is patient, personable, and professional. I’ve had 2 photo shoots with him & I’m in love with the results of his work. Especially with a fidgety puppy! I look forward to future photo shoots with him! Luna’s dad Dominic
I had a photoshoot for my two dogs and loved all the pictures! he did a great job!

Raul has shot my pets twice now and done an amazing job both times! My dogs and cats are not the easiest to shoot but Raul was patient and flexible, doing his best to bring out their best sides. He managed to capture their personalities to a T in photos that I will always treasure. His home shoot was so cool, he turned my living room into a photography studio! He travels with all the needed equipment and can shoot almost anywhere. We did a beach shoot that came out beautiful for my senior dog. Every shoot my dogs have a blast thanks to Raul’s patience. And his prices are very affordable and reasonable. I highly recommend him!

I’ve known Raul for a couple years now, he’s an amazing guy, very talented photographer and always has been highly spoken of. He shot our sweet rousey girl yesterday morning, and we were beyond impressed! He was more than patient, loving towards our sweet girl from the moment they met. I cannot wait to see the shots he got, I would without a doubt recommend his services to anyone, and also plan to book him myself again in the future! Thank you soo much for this awesome experience 🐾🥰 Rousey’s mom Bailey
