Schnauzer Art
Schnauzer art starts with a dog already in costume. The beard and the eyebrows are a full character before anybody adds a hat, and they are in the breed standard rather than being a grooming flourish. Shoot from slightly above eye level so the brow does not shadow the eyes, and the portrait keeps the whole face.
A Schnauzer knows precisely how distinguished he looks and behaves accordingly. He is alert, vocal, and holds firm opinions about visitors, deliveries and the general running of things. Anything with a uniform or a title fits him, because the face is already halfway there. As a gift it works precisely because the dog looks the part before we do anything at all.

Frequently asked questions about Schnauzer portraits
His eyebrows cover his eyes. Should I trim them before photographing?
You do not have to. Shooting from slightly above his eye level lifts the brow out of the way and keeps the eyes visible, which preserves the eyebrows that make the breed look like itself.
Where does the name come from?
From Schnauze, the German for muzzle. The breed is named after the bearded snout, which is a reasonable summary of what people notice first.
Salt and pepper or solid black: does one work better?
Both work, and yours is rendered as it is. Salt and pepper carries more visible texture in the wiry coat, while solid black relies more on light to show the beard against the face, so a solid black dog benefits from softer side lighting.
What does a framed print cost?
Framed Poster starts at $79.99 for 8 by 10. The Luxury Framed tier runs $99.99, $129.99 and $149.99 across 8 by 10, 12 by 16 and 18 by 24.
