Adding @beardedd's comment as an answer because I think this is a better way to handle the problem.

Name your database columns something like picture_filename and then in your model mount the uploader using:

class User < ActiveRecord::Base has_paper_trail mount_uploader :picture, PictureUploader, mount_on: :picture_filename end

You still use the user.picture.url attribute to access your model but PaperTrail will store revisions under picture_filename.
